<p>UCB/UCLA: Match
UCSD: Safe Match
UCI/UCSB/UCD: Safety</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA--slight reach to reach
UCSD--match to slight reach
UCSB/UCD--match
UCI--safe match</p>

<p>Your test scores might get you in at all--as flopsy points out above. But I think the ECs are a little weak--and the GPA is too low to overlook for the top two schools.</p>
