<p>I hate to burst your bubble but I just want to tell it like it is - someone I know had similar/basically the same stats as yours and was rejected from all of the UCs you listed here (they were in-state too). Thus, USC and University of Washington are reaches as well. </p>
<p>With all things considered, however, it’s not like you haven’t accomplished great things during high school. So I don’t think you should see the UCs as the end-all and be-all. Do you want to attend a public or private school? I would rethink your college choices as a whole. Set apart two reaches, a few matches and two safety schools. I know that there are quality CSUs (Cal Poly SLO, Cal Poly Pomona, CSU San Francisco, CSU San Diego) and smaller private colleges (Occidental, Scripps, Chapman, Pepperdine) in California that would love to have you. What are your general interests? You may not know your exact major just yet but are you geared more to the arts or humanities? After you’ve decided this, I recommend looking at one of Princeton Review’s “Best Colleges for B Students” books in the library or bookstore. You probably don’t have to buy it to get an idea but write a few names down. I know this title has been helpful to many people who want to get a respectable education but may not have had the numbers for top colleges. The UC system is extremely competitive and a lot of people were rejected from UCs (at least, at my school) that they were confident about. </p>
<p>Hope this helps. Best of luck!</p>
