<p>I dont think they help or hurt your chances for addmission</p>

<p>What is your class rank? Good chances at everywhere except UCLA and UCB will definitely be tough for you. Are those your final scores? Theyre a little low for these 2 schools.</p>

<p>No, San Diego is way too hot for me) I like snow and freezing winters)) weird, i know)</p>

11

<p>I live in CA</p>

<p>LA is pretty hot too.
Berkeley and Davis weather is nice/normal but no snow.</p>

<p>If you like snow and cold, you might want to look midwest and eastcoast lol</p>

12

<p>well all my colleges except UC’s are on the east coast/midwest and I am applying to UCs cause i’m in-state and davis and sb are good financial safeties</p>

15

<p>hmmmm, i think you’re applying to too many schools(how will you handle all the supplements and fees?!; I’d cut it down to 11/12 tops), and your ECs aren’t that great, but here’s my two cents for the one’s I’m familiar w/</p>

<p>Boston College-high match/low reach
Syracuse Uni-match
Rochester Uni-match
Middlebury C- reach
Tufts U-low-mid reach
Bucknell U-high match
Bates C-match
Vassar C-low reach</p>

<p>UCLA-reach
UC Berleley-reach
Uc Davis-match
UCSB-match
maybe get rid of a few matches and or reaches…you don’t need that many
I’m sending you a PM of my stats to chance. good luck and thanks!!</p>

16

<p>I am instate, but don’t want to stay in cali, so i mostly care about east coast/midwest schools</p>

17

<p>Boston College - reach
Syracuse Uni - match
Rochester Uni - match
Carleton C - high match
Macalester C - match (they really like foreigners)
Middlebury C - reach
Tufts U - reach
Vassar C - reach
UCLA - high reach
UC Berleley - high reach (scores and grades really matter here)
Uc Davis - match
UCSB - match </p>

<p>Your SAT score is low, but is understandable for a non-native English speaker. Your ECs are low in depth and breadth as well, but are made up for by your significant international experiences, especially the volunteering. The smaller liberal LACs like Macalester, Vassar and Middlebury will be a lot more receptive to your international experiences than the large state universities like Berkeley. Also, I think you should limit your list of schools to 10 tops.</p>
