<p>What are my chances at getting into UCI ?
I'm in my senior year doing applications for the UC's, and I'm deathly afraid I won't get in. What are my chances at getting into University of California Irvine?
My major for UCI is School of Social Ecology Psychology and Social Behavior with the alternate being Computer Science</p>
<p>Here's my information so far:
Weighted UC GPA: 3.65 (10-12) Nonweighted : 3.3 (9-12)
SAT: 620 Reading 600 Writing 670 Math
Second in family to go to college
4 years foreign language
Taking/took 6 AP classes and 5 honors during HS.
Asian-American immigrant during early adolescent.
I have served the homeless and less fortunate at a soup kitchen for 3 years, was in the Youth Action Team for 2, had a work observation internship sort of thing at a counseling center + filing papers, logging records, etc volunteer experience for a week (25 hours) , and was a Sunday Bible school teacher's aid for a few months.</p>
<p>I have been a practitioner of kendo for more than 5 years with a first Dan and played the guitar for 4 years (self taught, teacher taught).</p>
<p>My work experience includes being a General Contractor's Assistant for 3 years.</p>
<p>From what I've been told, I have decent essays for both prompts.
How much of a chance do I have at getting into the school? And will my essays make or break me?</p>
