<p>Your GPA is below the averages for both schools and your SAT is at or below the 25th-%tile. Combining those stats with 20% or lower admit rates, and I think you need to consider both of these schools as fairly big reaches.</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback vinceh! Really though :)</p>

4

<p>Try to retake the SAT if you can! but your ECs are really good though!</p>

5

<p>Thank you :slight_smile: I took the one last weekend and am hopeful for the results.</p>

6

<p>USC: low reach
UCLA: low reach</p>

7

<p>Your extracurriculars are great, but I would still consider both schools low reaches.</p>

8

<p>Thanks guys. I have an interview with USC in December and I plan to go all out.</p>

9

<p>I think you have a chance. Just try to raise your sat score. Overall, I would say that both schools are low reach. You still have a chance. Good Luck</p>

10

<p>Thanks man I really appreciate it :)</p>

11

<p>I would put both schools as low reaches. If you crack 2100+, you’ll have a better shot. Your ECs are quite good! If you’re a California resident, you’ll have better chances too.
Good luck!</p>

12

<p>Thanks dude I am getting a clear image of where I stand.</p>

13

<p>California schools are hard to get into if you aren’t a resident but it is possible. Your sats will help wonders if you raised them to 2000+. You’re on the right track because your ECs and grades/courses are very good but the SATs play a large role as well. Good luck!</p>

14

<p>Thanks dude!!!</p>

15

<p>You’re EC’s are definately amazing, but like the others said, GPA and SAT scores are a little low. The other comments kind of stole all of my feedback but your chances of getting in will probably be more leaned towards your ECs. And like I said before, your ECs are great. But goodluck!</p>

16

<p>Thanks dude, I really hope to get the SAT higher.</p>

17

<p>Try to retake your SAT’s! Without that though, I’m afraid both of these are reaches :(</p>

18

<p>if your scores stay the same, I would say you have a 40% of chance to UCLA and USC</p>

19

<p>Your ECs will definitely help you get into both, but you gpa is on the lower side and you definitely need to raise your SAT to get into either. If you do well in the interview, write good essays, and break 2050, I would say you have a fair shot at either. Good luck and please chance me back! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1576421-what-my-chances-getting-into-usc-ucla-nyu.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1576421-what-my-chances-getting-into-usc-ucla-nyu.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
