<p>Looking very good I think but honestly I don’t know much about the UCs. For the tougher ones like Berkeley I’d say low reach, or high match…the others either match or high match…it really depends which you know?</p>

<p>hmm, thx for the info man. I’m gonna look into it more, but just wanted a bit of guidance. My friends and family say im a sure shot for UCSD, but obviously, they might be trying to make me feel better.</p>

<p>Well your SAT is very very impressive, which should compensate a bit for the GPA. I’m not going to pretend I know much about the UC system, but from what I’ve learned on CC UCSD seems like a match for you. Your EC’s aren’t random, and show dedication which is very important! Hopefully schools will see that you have a huge amount of potential.</p>
