<p>scgamer:</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCB/UCLA: Slight Reach (Engineering)
UCSD: Match (Engineering)</p>

<p>You are out of state? Then you will have a hard time getting into Berkeley and LA. For San Diego, you would probably get in. And for the rest of the UC's, you will most likely be accepted.</p>

<p>And my guess is that your UC gpa would be around 4.25, which is still very high. Good luck.</p>

<p>is it mainly becuz of my SATs?</p>

<p>thnx for the reply, so what does reach mean in terms of percentages??</p>

<p>An international should usually consider those UC's a reach, although your chances are possibly somewhat better at UCSD than the other two. Particularly for engineering, all should be aware of the following comment the UCs put on the Pathways site:</p>

<p>"International applicants to engineering and computer science programs at the University of California are advised that the number of qualified applicants far exceeds the number of available spaces in the programs. Preference is given first to California residents, then to other U.S. residents. Only a limited number of extremely well-qualified international applicants can be considered for admission to these programs."</p>
