<p>Okay so I know I don't really have a shot, but whatever.
I applied to UC Berkeley in high school and was accepted, but was rejected from UCLA (where I'd ideally transfer). I'm now a sophomore at NYU and I would be applying to UCLA for next fall as an English major with a creative writing focus.</p>
<p>In high school:
not sure of my gpa, I'd guess a 3.8 or so unweighted, maybe 4.0 weighted?
2100 on the SATs (750 Writing, 700 Critical Reading, 650 Math)
pretty good extracurriculars (main ones were acting and being Entertainment Editor on the school newspaper)</p>
<p>In college:
NYU College of Arts and Sciences
Major: Dramatic Literature, Theater History and the Cinema [basically an English major, but for plays]. Minors: Creative Writing [not offered as a major], Producing [not offered as a major]
3.7 gpa
for ECs:
freshman year--did a lot of acting, nannied
summer--interned at a TV production company, worked at a bookstore
sophomore year--working part-time at a literary agency, hoping to get another part-time job, hope to enter and possibly win a short story contest or two. I've never really submitted my work before, but I have a lot of fiction that I've just worked on on my own and in classes.</p>
<p>I haven't done all the core curriculum yadayada because obviously many UCLA courses do not match those at NYU. But please offer your honest opinionas to whether or not I'll get in--I am aware that statistically I don't have much of a chance (esp. as UCLA is a very numbers-driven school) but I would appreciate your opinions nonetheless....</p>
<p>Thanks a lot!</p>
