Hi guys. I’m a junior in high school right now and I’m looking into some colleges. It would be awesome if you could let me know my chances of getting into UCLA or other high tier schools based on what I’ve done so far. I’m only listing honors or ap classes. I’ve gotten A’s in all of the other classes that are non-honors. The grades i post represent both semesters of the course.
Freshmen Year:
Bio(H): A
(H) Comp Sci 1: A
(H) Literature: A
Sophomore Year:
(H) Precalculus: A
(H) Chemistry: A
AP European History: A
(H) Literaute: A
(H) Comp Sci 2: A
Junior Year (So far…)
AP US History: A
AP Calculus AB: A
AP Physics: A
AP Lang: A
(H) Comp Sci 3: A
SAT Scores (I know UCLA doesn’t super score but I’m going to put it down anyway):
superscore (so far): 2150
Test 1:
CR 620
W 700
M 770
Total 2090
Test 2:
CR 680
W 680
M 710
Total 2070
Test 3 (projected scores…i didn’t include this in my superscore):
CR 700
W 730
M 750
Total 2180
GPA:
Unweighted: 4.0
Weighted 4.67
Check the Common Data Set Section C to chance yourself for any school. Know that if you are talking about highly selective schools (not state Us that are more numbers based) then you will be expected to have ECs that differentiate you, strong letters of rec and a compelling essay, in addition to great academics.
Solid grades and test scores, but for high tier schools like UCLA they are looking for more than just numbers. They will look at your extracurricular activities and essays.
So while maintaining strong grades, being involved in something you like within the school or in the community will also help your chances.
i have plenty of extra curricular activities i just didn’t put them down but I’ll list some and can you tell me if these are sufficient:
NHS member
Club President of Habitat for Humanity at my school
Link Crew Ambassador (a program at my school that helps freshmen out)
Lots of Volunteer work
My city’s Student Advisory Board
Track and Field
Seems solid for the majority of all colleges in the U.S, including public ivies.
