<p>In my opinion, your SAT’s could be better. Your GPA is also on the weaker side, but given the gap between your weighted and unweighted GPA, I’m assuming you took many APs? And it seems you’ve done well on all your AP exams. Regardless, you can’t really do anything about your GPA, but since it’s UCSB, you could probably get away with it. Anyway, boost those SAT scores and you’ll have a WAY better shot. Good luck! :)</p>
