<p>UCB and UCLA are reaches.</p>

<p>UCSD seems like a slight reach with your GPA.</p>

<p>All the other seem to be matches.</p>

<p>You're GPA is definitely going to hurt your most.</p>

<p>thanks for the input!
anyone else plzzz</p>

<p>also if i am a first generation going to college... how would UCs know.. and would it impact my acceptance? i remember that the UC app had family income and education but i stupidly left it blank because it was optional. now i regret it =(
did i just answer my own question or is there another way that UCs can find out about first generation or income... I ALSO DIDNT DO FAFSA because my parents said they didnt care and would pay for college ****... im not even rich</p>

<p>UC Berkeley/UCLA: Reach
UCSD: Slight Reach-Reach
UCI/UCSB/UCD: Match
UCSC/UCR/UCM: Safe Match</p>

<p>UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD seem to be a bit out of reach. I think you should be a match for UCI. Best of luck!</p>

<p>thank youu
since you two said about the same chances for me
i guess its safe to for me to prepare myself that B and LA are unlikely, SD would be a maybe... and the place im most likely to end is I/SB/D.</p>

<p>thanks for the input</p>

6

<p>Yeah LA and Cal are unlikely. From a pure statistic standpoint, ppl in ur grouping 3.5-3.699 weighted are about 5 percent to make it and ur SAT isn't high enough to compenstae for ur gpa. However, I do know many ppl with around 3.7 w and 1900's who got into UCSD so don't lose hope on that school</p>

7

<p>These stats seem strangely familiar.</p>

<p>You are more or less a good match for Irvine and below, SD I'd put your chances at 30-40%, and LA and Berkeley are out of reach. Cheers.</p>

8

<p>Considering First-generation/low-income, you might have a chance at SD. SD gives like 200 points just for being first-generation.</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: reach
UCSD: slight reach
UCD/UCI/UCSB: match
UCSC/UCR/UCM: safe match</p>
