UC Chances

I’m applying to Berkley, LA (long shots I know), San Diego, Irvine and Davis
GPA: 3.6 unweighted, 3.9 weighted
ACT: 31

ECs: Currently attending boarding school for ballet, have done that every day 20+ hrs a week, multiple volunteer projects, Environmental club, french club, photography.

If this makes a difference, I have shown my personal essays to several teachers and counselors and all have said that they are very strong and well-written. Not sure how much that weighs in.

Thanks all for your help!

forgot to add- fluent in French (read, write, speak)

Very very low for both schools…

What is your UC GPA? http://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/
In-state? HS course rigor? Intended major?

UCI and UCD are more feasible!

UC GPA is 3.72 for my first three years, this year my GPA is currently 4.0, I am taking 2 AP’s, 2 Adv classes and several arts classes (I go to a selective arts school)
I am in-state, my intended major is biology or psychology :slight_smile:

UC GPA is only based on 10-11th grades, so what is your UC GPA?
UCB/UCLA: Reach
UCI/UCD: Low Reach

Well, in that case my UC GPA is 3.75 for 10th and 11th

My chances stand as posted. UC GPA is below average for all those schools and the UC’s are very GPA focused.
If you are set on attending a UC, then consider UC Santa Cruz, Riverside or Merced.
