My Chances

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - GENERAL
1

<p>I want to apply to: UCSD, UCSB, UCI, Cal Poly, SDSU, UCSC, and maybe UCLA, but I probably have no chance there.</p>

<p>So Here Are My Stats…</p>

<p>10th Grade:
Video Production A/A
Biology B/A
Spanish 2 A/A
English A/A
HL Pre-Calc B/B
Geometry (Summer School) B/C
W GPA = 3.666666667</p>

<p>11th Grade:
HL Spanish 3 A/A
AP Calculus A/A
Journalism A/A
HL Chemistry B/A
AP US History B/B
AP English B/A
W GPA = 4.5000</p>

<p>With the toughest schedulue possible my gpa is…
UC GPA (8 Semester Cap) = 3.9166</p>

<p>I should get ELC bc my class has like 730 students and every year only about 17 students get 4.00 and above and my weighted gpa is 4.083 which is used when determining the ELC (Top 4%)</p>

<p>SAT 1 = 1880 M(690), V(580), W(610)
I got this w/out studying so I’m hoping for 2000+ on my next one
SAT 2 = Math2(650), Chem(650)</p>

<p>Senior Schedule: AP Gov/Econ, AP Psychology, AP Stats, AP English, Spanish 4, Journalism</p>

<p>EC’s: Key Club (Vice President), CSF, Journalism (Editor), Tennis, Relay4Life, Sign Language Club, Volleyball Club (Treasurer) + Numerous awards for tennis and academics</p>

<p>I would rank them like this for me:
UCLA - Super Reach - 10% Chance
UCSD - Reach -25% Chance
UCSB/UCI - Slight Reach - 40% Chance
Cal Poly/UCSC - Match - 50% Chance
SDSU - Safety -70% Chance</p>

<p>Do you guys think I chanced my self correctly, if not can you give me my chances (with percents, if you want to)??</p>

<p>Please + Thanks in Advance</p>

<p>Your GPA is a little low, but the upwards trend in grades REALLY helps (It did for me at least, and im going to Cal). Your SAT score is a little low too, but if you get a 2000, you'll be in pretty good shape. </p>

<p>Assuming you get a 2000+ on SAT, i would say SDSU, Cal Poly, amd UCSC will be safeties. UCSB/UCI, i would say safe matches. UCSD would be a match and UCLA would be a slight reach/reach. If you can actually bring up your SAT score, i would say you have a 50% chance at UCLA. Your EC's are pretty good and if you get ELC that would also help a lot. Write a GREAT essay and that will also really help. You're really underestimating your chances...have more confidence in your chances.</p>

<p>The chances u evauluated is very low. It's not that hard...I got in UCSB college of engineering with 1630 SAT, 3.64 GPA and with not that many ECs. 100% u will get in SDSU, UCSC is almost a gurantee also, UCSD should be match, UCLA is kinda reach, UCI and UCSB is match for sure, cal poly is a match as well. You are in good shape overall! Also, if you can get into ELC, your chances will be greatly increased. Here are the chances without ELC
SDSU-100%
UCSC- 90%
CalPoly-80%
UCSD-50%
UCI and UCSB-60%
UCLA-40%</p>

<p>With your stats right now I'd say you could get into almost every UC except for UCLA and Cal.</p>

<p>Yeah I agree with nschuchert. You will most likely get into all the UCs, but UCLA and Cal is a large reach. O and by the way, I don't think UCSD will be a 25% chance for you, its probably around 75%</p>
