    [ b]Reflection**
    Strengths: extracurriculars, class rigor, essays, educational prep programs
    Weaknesses: test scores
    Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: I just “fit” with Berkeley and have been apart of many Berkeley activities before applying. I also qualified as a top 9% so I was guaranteed acceptance into at least one UC.
    What would you have done differently?: I guess study more for the SATs and worry less.
    Where else did you apply? all the UCs except Riverside and Merced and 9 private schools. I’ve only heard back from UC Berkeley, Cal Poly Pomona, and SDSU.

This should be in the UC Berkeley forum.
