<p>OH... You'll get rejected everywhere for sure!!!!!!!!! :-)</p>

3

<p>hm, that was a bit harsh amiradaprincess...</p>

<p>i think you will probably not get into UCB and UCLA but try the others...</p>

<p>You really should improve your SAT scores...</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK! =)</p>

<p>comem---- it's widely known as sarcasim... (hence the smilely face)... i'm sure you've been harsher.</p>

5

<p>comem---- it's widely known as sarcasm... (hence the smilely face)... i'm sure you've been harsher ("I think you will probably not get into UCB and UCLA"... that wasn't even sarcastic~)
the game-- anything is possible... don't give up on those schools.</p>

6

<p>i agree..........dont listen to what people say negatively.......gamble with your chances and see where it takes you........BUT DONT GAMBLE YOUR LIFE THOUGH</p>

7

<p>Good ECs, but weak stats (especially SATs).</p>

<p>With the current SATs:</p>

<p>UCB: Slight Reach
UCLA: Slight Reach
UCSD: Almost match
UCI: Match
UCSB: Match +
USC: Slight Reach</p>

8

<p>thegame2388:</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Reach
UCSD: Slight Reach
UCSB: Match</p>

9

<p>So an SAT score above 1900 should do the trick for a match in UCSD/UCLA?</p>

10

<p>2000 and above</p>

11

<p>is it just because major(pre-dentistry)is strong?or other major would be reach too for thegame2388, cause he has very similar stats with me..and is appling different major but same school</p>

12

<p>the target sat score for ucla is 2100 according to the princeton review poster ive seen.</p>

13

<p>2100?! thats a lot to ask for.</p>

14

<p>i had a 1310 on the old SAT last year and I got into UCLA so you should be fine! 1950 would give you a great shot!!!</p>

15

<p>Ok great. I really love UCLA></p>

16

<p>I don't understand how projected grades can count for anything. You are giving yourself straight A's and you have never done that before.</p>

17

<p>It's because those are the grades that I have right now. And if you looked, I had AP English 1st semester and normal english the second semester. That's why. As for AP US, I have an 87.7% and if you want to factor a B instead of what (will most likely happen) A, then do so.</p>

18

<p>yeah so...</p>

19

<p>You know for International students (i.e. Canada), the scoring for GPA is a little different. </p>

<p>A: 86-100
B: 73-85
C+: 67-72
C: 60-66
C-: 50-59
I/F: below 50</p>

<p>What do i use to calculate my GPA? The scoring for U.S. or Canada?</p>

20

<p>Uh. ours is out ofo 5.0 (w) and 4.0 (uw)</p>
