UCSB Chance?

Hey all-

I’m currently a HS junior but want to see if I’m on track for UCSB. Any input would be appreciated!

UC GPA: projected 4.08 (no AP’s soph year because at my school sophomores can’t take them; 3 AP’s junior year)
SAT: 2250
PSAT: haven’t received score yet but I’m guessing it will be mid-range to high, maybe the equivalent of a 190 (it was modeled on the new SAT and I found it pretty difficult). No national merit
ECs: 1 year of JV basketball, 2 yrs varsity (will play var next year too)
Member of Feminism club (2nd year)
VP of my high school’s chapter of Amnesty International and have been to multiple human rights conferences (and then brought info back to my HS to implement new awareness campaigns)

  • will be president next year
    Student council member
    200+ hrs community service
    Consistent babysitting job - about 10 hours a week, more in the summer

So I’m just wondering what I can do NOW to improve my chances. More volunteering? Is it critical that I do a summer program in 2016? Anything else?

Thank you!!

Based on your projected stats, you are on the right track. Make sure you have some solid match and safety schools on your list, continue working hard on your grades and EC’s.

Good Luck
