<p>Not enough information about your SAT. Does your UW=W=UC GPA? If not, and in the offchance that your nonAs were all from freshman year, then you still have a shot at UCLA/UCB/UCSD. Otherwise,
UCB/UCLA: Reach
UCSD: Slight Reach/Reach
UCI/UCD: High Match/Match</p>
<p>sorry about that
my UC gpa is 3.85
weighted, i think, would be about 3.9-4.0</p>
<p>SAT
math-650
CR-660
Writing-690</p>
<p>If that's the case, I would put UCSD towards a high match/match and UCB/UCLA as Slight Reach/Reach</p>
<p>people always forget to read my posts!!
ok, now that everything is finalized, can you guys give me my chances for the following UCs? Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>UCB: Biochemisty/ Molecular Biology Major
UCLA: Biochemistry

UCI: Biomedical Engineering: Premed
UCSB: Biochemistry

<p>Rank 3/656 in a rural high school (not too competitive) I took the hardest course load possible. Also, I am ELC.
UC GPA: 4.27
SAT:CR 650 W 670 M 760= Total of 2080
SAT II: Math II 730

(that's all; I had limited opportunities due to the combination of my rural surroundings and lack of transportation. I explained this in my essay.)</p>
<p>I doubt you have an issue getting into any UCs with your GPA and SAT. That with ELC would seemingly predict some sort of scholarship at Irvine/SB/possibly Davis.</p>
<p>thank you peppers!</p>
<p>My high school GPA is 3.96 UW, how do you calculate UC GPA? do you know what it would be weighted in the UC system?

<p>-I have a lot of community service hours but have never counted them up to be honest. Service isn't about logging my every move I just do it becuase I love it.</p>
<p>-I have also been on 6 service trips around the world. I have done things like Habitat for Humanity in South Africa and helped out at AIDS orphanges in Trinidad. All of these were with my chuch and other Christian groups.</p>
<p>-I know I am not the strongest student but I have a low GPA becuase I slacked off the first year or so in high school. I have gotten better. I also think I have pretty good extra c's so hopefully colleges will value those as well?</p>
<p>-I plan to major in Pol. Sci.</p>
<p>I wouldn't look above Merced or Riverside if I were you. Maybe Santa Cruz if you're lucky. Low SATs are fine if you have a great GPA, or the opposite to a lesser degree, but your grades and your test scores are both below average for all but those two schools.</p>
<p>^I would agree to some extent. I have no idea what a 90/120 is on our curve, but that is probably not a level that would be considered competitive. Still, consider that you still have options. As a junior, your UC GPA is only your sophomore year grades as of now. Do well in junior year, and you may well see your GPA go up, at least with respect to the UCs. Your tests can also improve since you probably haven't taken your SATs yet. Being a bad test taker cannot be used as an excuse in your case, since your GPA isn't supporting the argument that you're an overall excellent student. If you could bring that up to a 1900, and assuming that your UC GPA approaches a 3.7, you might be able to consider Irvine/SB/Davis. If you do better than that, well, the top tier is still marginally within reach.</p>
<p>LL34, If you don't mind my asking what makes it worth 00S tuition to go to "any" UC? I mean, I might understand certain ones for certain things but are they ALL worth it?</p>
<p>PS: congrats on the Gold Award!</p>
<p>I wouldn't apply to all of them,, just wondering which ones I might have a shot at (which right now is looking like none haha)</p>

Thanks in advance to all those who are chancing me. =)</p>

<p>Thanks a bunch Peppers. What would you think the percentage of slight reach/high match be because I'm really aiming for those mid-tiers.</p>
<p>OK guys, I need some input of whether or not you think I'll be accepted into UCI or not...
I've applied to UCI, UCB, UCLA, UCM, UCSD, UCR, and UCD, but UCI is my first choice. After crunching the numbers, I'm pretty sure that I'm going to get in, but I'd like to hear it from some other familiar with the UC system.
I'm currently and in-state senior who's looking to get into Political Science (which doesn't look like a too competetive major).</p>
<p>UC GPA (10th-11th, the one that UC looks at): 3.93
AP Classes taken or in progress: 5 (two for 11th, three for 12th)
note- I did take 2 Honors courses in 10th, and two in 9th, but they're not "UC approved Honors courses", whatever that means. I'm not sure if they count.)</p>
<p>Test Scores:
SATI:
Math-590
CR-660
Writing:500</p>
<p>SATII:
Math: 570
US History: 710
Lit: 640</p>
<p>ACT: (Better UC score than the SATI, they take the higher)
Composite Score-26</p>
<p>AP Tests:
US History: 4
English Language: 3</p>
<p>Notable Extra Curricular/Awards:
VP and Pres of Science club 3 years
500 hours of Martial Arts
VP of Senior Class
Boy's State
Two years Student Government
One year Student Ambassadors
1st Place JPL invention challenge
Green Belt (Martial Arts)
League of Cities Student delegate</p>
<p>Volunteer Service Hours: +100 (Kind of scattered over many things)</p>
<p>College Applications essays: In my opinion pretty good, but I have one grammatical error despite the numerous checks. -_-</p>
<p>Things that might count against me:
-Have only taken two years foreign language. the second year is being taken now, in 12th. (UC requires 2, reccommends 3)
-A majority of my volunteer service is mostly in 12th, including half of my martial arts hours. (don't know if that's necessarily a bad thing)
-A-G Courses (by semester) taken over High School career only equals about 38, slightly short of the average admitted student to UCI (by the stats, it doesn't look like too big a factor in admission)
- One. Grammatical. Error. On an otherwise flawless application. -_-
(Also, I didn't have any special conditions)</p>
<p>I'm interested to have some input on what UC's I can expect to get into, specifically Irvine. Any thoughts? Thanks for your time. =D</p>
