<p>Haha, nobody's responding.</p>
<p>Guys, what can they say or do? Apps are in, you're just trying to reassure yourselves at this point and that won't happen until we hear from the schools.</p>
<p>So just chill 'til March.</p>
<p>Double Post...Sorry</p>
<p>Main Topic: And then I went and became a total hypocrite by posting my stats on the Cal Forum. Guess I need reassurance too.</p>
<p>Sorry</p>
<p>Asian male. attend the oldest and one of the most prestigious high schools in SoCal. 3.5 UC gpa, 1860 SAT, 670 Lit, 700 US History, two years of track, decent ECs, 185 community service, EXCELLENT essays (only thing I'm proud of).</p>

<p>my school doesnt send rank.</p>
<p>I second what Locke said haha. But since its raining outside and I'm about to nap, I'll be nice and rate ya'll.</p>
<p>hsaifee: Very impressive. I don't know many people with a 4.0 in college lol... Anyway I'd say you have a very good chance at all of those.</p>
<p>Squidmonster: Low-side GPA, but your SAT saves you.
UCB/UCLA: reach
UCSD: match
The rest you should be good for low match/safety.</p>
<p>Firefornia: Your SAT and GPA are a bit on the low side for these schools:
UCLA: high reach
UCI/UCSB: gonna be reaches/high matches
UCR: high safety</p>
<p>asdf: slightly low GPA for LA/SD/B, but nice SATs
LA/B:reach
SD:match
UCI:safety</p>
<p>iamcapncrunch: you have a nice upward trend, however the upper UC's just cringe at the sight of C's.</p>
<p>B/LA/SD: Reach
I/SB/D: slight reach
SC: safety</p>
<p>Could you explain all the safe, match, reach?</p>
<p>I'm guessing that safe means it's pretty much 99% sure you're in and then match is 90%, is reach something like 50+%? And what is low/high/slight reach? </p>
<p>A listed order would be helpful (from most likely to least likely, maybe numbers too...)...thanks!</p>
<p>safety would be like 75%+
match is around 45%+
reach is anything below</p>
<p>yeah pretty much what koreanboi said... You want schools to be safeties for guarentees and you kinda would be lucky to get into reach schools. Match schools are like coin flip at times.</p>
<p>Thanks Purest.</p>
<p>Do UC's see C's as C's? Because if they are converting it to UC GPA, those C's (well, at least for me) wouldn't be C's anymore...</p>

<p>I've already been chanced like a month ago but just want to reaffirm them. =]]</p>
<p>Chances for UC Santa Cruz and UC Merced. I already got into UC Riverside.</p>
<p>Can anyone give me any insights into what my chances at getting into UC Berkeley or UCLA are?</p>
<p>I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA through a year and a half at a Community College and honors classes were not offered at my CC. I am on track to complete the IGETC this semester, I'm taking my last class for it right now. I will have 65+ semester units upon graduation. I have applied as an Economics major to both schools, and am completing the last prerequisite for that major this semester. I was a National Merit Semifinialist (not Finalist) in high school. My application essays were decent but I feel like I've written better.</p>
<p>Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.</p>

<p>What're my chances on ALL UC's (Merced, Riverside, Santa Barbara, San Diego, Irvine, Berkeley, Davis, Los Angles, Santa Cruz) and Long Beach State, San Diego State, Cal Poly SLO, Cal Poly Pomona, Fullerton? How much will I have to boost in order to get into the higher reaches schools? Thanks so much!</p>
<p>t_mac64: you can prob forget bout Berk, LA, SD.
I, SB, D- high reaches.
M, R, SC reach/matches.
SDSU, Cal Poly & CPP- reaches
CSUF- Match</p>
<p>You need to make up the D in spanish and stop getting C's.</p>
<p>Jeffrey99: I would say your in.</p>
<p>newbalance: you can't go wrong with a 4.0 so just wait it out. You have a pretty good chance. </p>
<p>Jeffrey: Match for UCSC, in at Merced</p>
<p>T_mac: pretty much the same as EZDay said. Not looking too great for Berk, LA, SD.</p>
<p>I/SB/D: they make exceptions here in there for people who got Ds. I have heard ppl getting into Davis with a D but they had very good SAT scores. Ill give you high reach for those.</p>
<p>If you apply for Food Science at Cal Poly, that would be a match for you. Matches at SC/R/M.</p>
