UCLA chance????

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I was wondering what are my chances to get into UCLA. My GPA is solid, right now it is a 3.6. In my senior year I am taking 3 AP classes as well as physics. The three AP classes are calculus, English, and Environmental Science. I am going to be a the person in my family to go to college. I have 5 little brothers and sisters with a single parent. I also do not live in the best community but a low income Hispanic community. My sat and act scores were not that great. It is not because I am not smart it is just that when it comes to those types of test I always seem to not do good. If anyone can give me their honest opinion on my chances of getting into UCLA I would be grateful. I would not get hurt just give me your honest opinion. Thank You.</p>

<p>You need a high GPA and SAT scores to get into UCLA. It’s one of the hardest UC schools to get into right after Berkeley.</p>

<p>So does that mean that my chances is slime to none then??</p>

<p>I would say you have around a 20% chance or lower. What’s your weighted gpa and total SAT scores?</p>

5

<p>My weighted gpa is 3.75 and my sat score was around a 1500. I know that is average SAT score. Which UC’s do you suggest I apply to??</p>

<p>UC Merced and UC Riverside are excellent matches. You may have a pretty decent chance at UC Santa Barbara and UC Santa Cruz, but UCLA, UC Berkeley are a bit out of your range. UC Davis, UC Irvine possible reaches. My advice is to write an amazing personal statement then you might have a better shot at your top schools. Who knows maybe you’ll get into UCLA- they are pretty irregular with their admissions. I’ve seen people with killer stats get rejected and those with poor to average stats get in. :slight_smile: Best of luck to you :)</p>

<p>toan35 UC Santa Barbara is higher ranked and harder to get into than UC Irvine. So if someone has a “decent chance” at UCSB how would UCI be a reach?</p>

<p>and obeyyball, although your gpa and sat scores may be below average for UCLA, if you write an extremely good essay you could still have a decent chance! good luck!</p>

<p>YEah, witht hose scores you don’t have much of a chance at all sorry. UCLA wants kids with 4.0+ and SAT Scores at least around 1900.</p>

<p>Lol not to be a dick but there’s no way in hell you’re getting in. I applied last year with a 4.3 gpa, 2260 SAT and 34 ACT and got rejected.</p>
