<p>I’ve heard the same things as the other posters regarding pricing. I’d be cautious about applying to only these schools, are there others that you’re applying to that you haven’t posted? I think you have a good shot at making it into all of these schools, and chances are you’ll get some good scholarships, but I’d have some backups if I were you. With that being said…</p>

<p>UCLA: High match
USC: Match, as long as you get the test score you’re hoping for
UCSD: Match
UCD: Low Match</p>

<p>Good luck! You can chance me here if you’d like: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1548785-do-i-need-more-safety-schools-my-list.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1548785-do-i-need-more-safety-schools-my-list.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
