<p>I would say your chances are pretty good</p>

3

<p>Can I ask what your un-weighted gpa is hc?</p>

4

<p>Berkeley: High match
UCLA: High match
UCSD: Match
UCI: Match</p>

5

<p>@boby my unweighted is about 3.55 or so.</p>

<p>thanks everyone, please keep chancing!</p>

6

<p>I honestly would not say UCLA and Berkeley are high matches, there average unweighted gpa is 3.8, with weighted gpa’s usually above 4.0 I am quite sure your gpa falls at or bellow the 25th percentile of accepted students by GPA. But you should still try obviously, you never know.</p>

7

<p>UCB: low reach/reach
UCLA: low reach
UCSD: high match
UCI: match</p>

8

<p>@boby Yeah my GPA is pretty bad but I’m hoping my courseload will lessen the damage a bit, but I doubt it.</p>

9

<p>Good luck with the process. You have great characteristics for UCSD.</p>

10

<p>Would applying to an engineering major affect my admission in any way?</p>

11

<p>You’re definitely good for all of them except Berkeley. Not that you wouldn’t get in, but it’s so competitive…Good luck though :slight_smile:
Chance back?

<p>UCLA and UCB might be difficult considering your UC gpa. Also, you don’t have any crazy ECs to help you stand out. I believe the average is over 4.1 UC gpa for both. Your SAT are high above average though and this should help. I would say all the other UCs are definite in’s, but UCLA and UCB are still challenging. Anything is possible though. Good luck and please chance me back! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1576421-what-my-chances-getting-into-usc-ucla-nyu.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1576421-what-my-chances-getting-into-usc-ucla-nyu.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I’m not too concerned about UCB and UCLA, I actually want to go to SD a lot more than those two. Thanks for the chances, keep em coming please!</p>

<p>I’d also like to reask my earlier question: Would applying to an engineering major affect my admission in any way?</p>

14

<p>You are comfortably over the SAT average for UCSD but well below their GPA of 4.11.</p>

<p>I think it will come down to your ECs (which look pretty solid) and essay. </p>

<p>I’ll say 60% UCSD
70% for Davis
80% @ Irvine and SB.</p>

15

<p>bump please!</p>

16

<p>Berkeley engineering: Reach
UCLA engineering: Reach
UCSD engineering: High match</p>

<p>March 31st can not come any faster… bump!</p>
