<p>UCLA: Match</p>

5

<p>It's nice to see the Lt. Governor of Cal-Nev-Ha on CC :D</p>

<p>You should be a match for UCLA - your GPA and eventual SAT retake are up to par, and your ECs clearly show quite a bit of passion and commitment, both things that UCLA look for. I know people that weren't quite as EC-extensive but had the same GPA, yet did NOT get into UCLA. You shouldn't worry at all.</p>

<p>i see my chance at ucla and berkeley as pretty much 50-50.</p>

<p>hopefully you guys are right! :D</p>

<p>seeing has how you dont have enough intelligence to post your "chances" post in the CHANCE ME THREAD, i'd say you'd be more comfortable at a community college.</p>

8

<p>'seeing has how' you make silly spelling errors while haranguing my lack of intelligence, you probably already go to a community college.</p>

<p>yeah, you got me. i actually dont even goto community college. im a high school drop out that hangs out on these forums to make myself feel better. :(</p>

<p>you dont have to be dumb to make a typo. but you do have to be to post a thread about something where there is already one giant massive one consolidating all similar posts.</p>
