<p>I agree, looks like a match, but obviously, have some safeties too. Good luck!</p>

5

<p>um yeah you're in...play basketball and you're smart...wow ;)</p>

6

<p>thanks guys...... anyone else have anything to say on whether or not they believe I can get in, and anything I might need to improve on between now and the end of the year??</p>

<p>hey jjcucla89 i suggest checking out the ucla forum. any questions that you have about ucla can be answered there. good luck! =)</p>

8

<p>i don't want to make you overconfident by saying this ok?
i'd say match.</p>

<p>People are getting way too generous. Apply anyways, but don't count on getting in. 3.92 UC weighted and a 2070 is never a match for UCLA. If you were a 4.2-3 fully weighted and a 2100 or so. Then yeah. Match.</p>

<p>dude weighted gpa is 4.425, sat 2070.... unless youre going for engineering, you have 99% chance of getting in unless you write crap for essays</p>

11

<p>I wouldn't say a 99% chance, but he's certainly a match.</p>

12

<p>UCLA average is 4.25 uncapped and about 2000 for the SAT. The jump from 4.25 to 4.425 is quite big, and I say that he/she is in. courseload is good, ec's are decent, SAT subjects could use improvement, but overall, chances are easily above 90%.</p>

13

<p>Keep in mind that the "average" is usually the 75th - 25th percentile range of applicants. Without knowing the standard deviation of any of the criteria, it's impossible to really say for sure what the OP's actual chances are.</p>

<p>It's safer to go with broader language, and I'd say match or safe match are good ranges. Trust me, I've seen tons of kids with very similar stats get dinged. It's not worth saying "ZOMG! LOCK!" when it's just not possible.</p>

<p>Thanks guys for your inputs....</p>
