<p>Hey all,
I live in California, and originally wanted to go to a UC. But, my gpa isn't good enough to qualify (I have a 2.6 weighted or something like that. I really didn't apply myself these past years...). </p>
<p>I'd really like to go to Chicago instead of a CSU though... my SAT I score was 1130, but will definately be 1200 or over when i take it in November (I took the first one cold turkey, and paid dearly for it). I know I can probably even get 1300, because my SAT II scores were 610s. I'm not active at all in sports but am very active in school activities. Also, my class rank is in the top 27%.</p>
<p>I'm not really familiar with the University of Illinois system... do I have a good chance at their Chicago campus?</p>
<p>Thanks...</p>
