<p>Thanks!
I’m debating if I should apply to UCSB, cuz if UCI/UCD are already safe enough, then i don’t think I’ll need UCSB as another safety school. i’m considering this cuz (this might sound like a stupid question) will one of the UC’s, let’s say UCLA, decide to reject me cuz i already got in a lot of other UC’s? I guess what i’m trying to ask is “Will my chance decrease if i apply to more UC’s?”</p>

<p>-UCLA - Low match. Would be higher if EC’s were better, everything is strong but the ECs are weak and UCLA usually likes well-rounded people. With that GPA though you might be okay.

<p>dhs911230, i believe match means you have a good chance of getting in, while reach means it’s not guaranteed that you’ll get in, but still possible. A high match is similar to a low reach, and a low match is closer to a safety school.</p>

<p>anyone else correct me if my interpretations are wrong.</p>
