<p>If you DO get 2200+ on your SATs,</p>

<p>USC = Safe Match</p>

<p>UCLA = Match</p>

<p>UCSD = Safe Match</p>

<p>UCB = Match</p>

<p>UCI = Safety</p>

<p>thanks! that actually makes me feel better. i was just really worried about my sophmore year grades, but i guess now that i've picked it up, i have nothing to worry about =)</p>

<p>mangogo:</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Match
UCSD: Safe Match
UCI: Safety</p>

<p>I agree with HeavenWood exactly. IF you do get that 2200...</p>

<p>USC = Safe Match
UCLA = Match (closer to safe match if you get a 2200)
UCSD = Safe Match
UCB = Match
UCI = Safety</p>

<p>Good for all the schools listed, but make sure that it is UC weighted not just weighted. :)</p>

<p>is...
high GPA > what you take ?
i know what you take determines high GPA, but do college adcoms see your GPA or also one by one what you take also?</p>

<p>The UCals will love you because of your numbers.</p>
