<p>Thanx in advance</p>

<p>btw sorry about the <b> </b> I tried to make it bold but this website doesn't accept HTML format...</p>

<p>lol</p>

<p>Anyways, the fact that you're from CA helps, but your SAT scores are still low for the schools you listed.</p>

<p>You do have a shot at UCLA and Cal if you're a Cali resident and write a great essay. SATs aren't very high at those schools.</p>

<p>Stanford and Yale are major reaches unless you are an athletic recruit.</p>

<p>really? k thx</p>

<p>ALSo I'm from a public school; my cousin says that helps...</p>

<p>and yes I am from CA ;) (In case you people didn't know, CIF is the southern half of Cali)</p>

<p>The vast majority of kids at UCs went to public schools. At ivies, most kids did too.</p>

<p>Not necessarily a top-of-the line recruit type of guy, but I did play Varsity Football.</p>

<p>Varsity football is great and a ton of American boys play it, but it's not going to matter at Stanford unless you are recruited. Look at D3 schools if you're a good player.</p>

<p>You will get accepted to either UCLA or Berkeley. It is also very, very likely that both schools will accept you... Congrats on all of your accomplishments, best of luck,</p>

<p>TTG</p>

<p>thx ttgiang : )</p>

<p>well, isn't Yale D3 or something like that?</p>

<p>Anyways I agree with you that Football isn't going to have nearly, and I mean nearly, as much as an effect on my chances of getting in as if I were being recruited, but on the other hand I strongly believe that they will really like to see it..</p>

<p>vagrant star:</p>

<p>UCLA: Slight Reach
UCB: Slight Reach
Stanford: Reach</p>

<p>As far as I know, UCSD is the only UC that has come out and told us what they gives points for. There, a non recruited varsity sport means squat. Focus on what's important. Write a great essay and give them a reason to want you. Hoping theat football will get you in won't help.</p>

<p>I'm not, just saying is all...
I have written my UC Essay, the long response one that is. If anyone is willing to read it please let me know by posting your e-mail address and I will be happy to send.. My english teacher said it was good..</p>

<p>bump (ten characters limit)</p>

<p>I want to go to stanford and UCs too....... guess we are in the same boat</p>
