Hey everyone, I was wondering if I could have a shot at going to UCLA. It has been one of my top choices and so I would really appreciate any help! I’m a senior in high school and as of right now I have a 3.81 UW and a 4.5 W. I’m taking 3 AP courses this year. The problem is that I have super low SAT scores. I only took it once and got an 1110/1600. I know that I need to raise it but if I can’t raise it that much will it signicantly hurt me?? Also I’m in NHS, Spanish Honor society, varsity swimming, varsity track, varsity XC, historian for Student Gov., and other clubs. Please let me know how much my standardized test scores will hurt me!!! Thanks!
UC’s are very GPA focused so you need to calculate your UC GPA weighted capped and weighted uncapped since UCLA will consider your UW GPA, UC W/C GPA and UC W/UC GPA.

You will also need to raise your SAT scores since the average is around 1380 to be competitive. Your EC’s and essays will definitely help in the application review but you need your test scores to be within range for a good chance. Your test scores are below the 25th percentile so to get some test prep.
Good Luck.
Ok thanks!
Any other advise??
