<p>Your uc unweighted gap is going to drop to a 3.77. Sadly, uc unweighted for ucla and uc berkeley is a 3.9. Your fully weighted is a 4.38, is very average for a berkeley or ucla admit. </p>

<p>Also, eecs is very harsh so I wouldn’t get your hopes up. I think you stand a good chance at San Diego and Irving. </p>

<p>UCB: Low Reach
If you are full pay, you might have a better chance.</p>

<p>Also, I got a 35 on the ACT, but I know ucs are gpa oriented? Still have a decent shot?</p>

why does the average gpa on the uc berkeley website say 4.18 gpa? http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/campuses/berkeley/freshman-profile/index.html

Assuming that berkeley will consider your pre-calc hons and chem hons as Honors courses and all of
the courses are two semester courses, your uncapped UC GPA:

6 semesters of B = 6x3 = 18
20 semesters of A = 20x4 = 80
Number of AP+Hons semesters = 20
Total semesters = 26

(6x3) + (20x4) + 20
---------------------------- = 4.53
26

I think you have a fair shot. Being OOS is the problem.

What I have learned from my brief time on CC is that there are “many many” students with 4.7/4.8 GPA with
good enough SAT/ACT. To get a feel of who you are competing with take a look at Stanford rejected/deferred
and USC threads. Most of these kids would also have applied to UCB/UCLA.

All the best.

for the record for future students, i got in to UCB, UCLA, UCSD, JHU, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, Michigan, CMC, and Cornell.
