<p>Lastly, I have taken the SAT once (without studying beforehand) and I got a 1600. However, I have been studying these past couple months and will continue to study. I expect around a 1800 as my final score. </p>

<p>SLO/UCSB/UCD: High match/low reach
UCR/UCSC: Match
SDSU/CSULB: Low match
Good upward trend congrats and good luck.</p>

<p>The upward trend helps, but your gpa is still very low. If you do end up getting an SAT score of 1800 that will help you quite a bit, but I will chance you on 1600 as that is what you have earned.</p>

<p>SLO/UCSB/UCD: High Reach (Almost no chance with SAT score and GPA)
UCR/UCSB: High Match (If you get your SAT score up I would call it a match)
SDSU/CSULB: Match (Good chance you will get in)</p>

<p>Goodluck.</p>
