I was suspended for 2 days in the beginning of sophomore year because I threw yogurt at a friend(not a close friend, but friend). I have regretted what I’ve done and learned how inconsiderate I was, but I made the anti-bullying club to get myself and others more involved in what goes on. MY counselor said she knows it was a one time thing and I have done a lot of positive things, thus she will write the suspension down but explain that I have changed, and it didn’t define me.

UCLA is my dream school, UCSB is also nice, I hope to think of it as a low match, if possible for me??
I consider UCLA a High-Match.
(May be you better write about that childish act in your essay and explain how sorry you have been and what steps you took to make up for that!)
All A’s and 2 B’s. 2 honors and 1 AP sophomore year(most rigorous schedule except for English)
All AP junior year(with all A’s). The 2 B’s in sophomore year were in Spanish 3 and english
I would consider all of those schools matches for you. While your UW is pretty mediocre, your weighted and UC-capped are pretty good. With the addition of your extremely strong SAT score, I think you have a very good chance at all of those schools. However, at Stanford-type schools, it will be probably reaches. For NYU, I would say high match/match.
Honestly, I don’t think it will matter too much. I bet the universities will be interested in what the cause of the suspension was and hearing that you threw a yogurt (like how could u be suspended for that hahaha xD), they will probably, honestly, not give a f*ck xD
You’re a sophomore in other threads, but you have all these grades already? Hmm… Are you just predicting these grades and achievements for yourself? If so, you should make that explicit. If not, good job with these accomplishments!
In your other threads, you said you are a current sophomore, which doesn’t make any sense to me. However, if it’s just a misunderstanding on my I side, I apologize.
