<p>When it comes to GPA and test scores, more is almost always better than less. Right now your UW GPA is probably on the lower side of average for UCB, UCLA & USC. Your SATs are basically dead center. Everything you can do to get the GPA up certainly makes it harder to reject you. I think essays telling admissions why these schools are important to you and how you’d help the campus community will also help.</p>
