Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I have a 4.3 weighted GPA and an unweighted GPA of 3.85</p>

<p>My SAT score is a 1710 composite
-Do GPA and Test Scores really hold that much weight when it comes to admissions?</p>

<p>I do play three sports baseball, basketball and football In which I am captain in two. I'm being looked at by a few colleges in my state (North Carolina) for football. I have won the team before self award in baseball and I have been selected as an all-conference wide receiver in football.</p>

<p>I am very involved at my church, I love to sing so I sing in two groups at my church plus I usher!</p>

<p>I am involved with some school clubs but mainly the Interact club because we really work in our community things like toys for tots, blood drives, and donations.</p>

<p>This year I got to work on the democratic campaign as a volunteer!</p>

<p>I am a Junior Counselor at a summer camp called S.A.S.I,(student athlete summer institute) where I mentor and teach a group of student athletes about leadership, sportsmanship and making healthy choices, through cheers, skits, etc.</p>

<p>have a few poems that I've written be published as well, because I like to write poetry and journals. I also write for my schools yearbook.</p>

<p>My personal statements really describe me and I feel good about them! They are really big part of app, I heard for UC schools</p>

<p>Do you think I would be a strong candidate for Berkeley? I also I applied to UC Santa Cruz. I applied to both schools as an undergraduate to major in Sociology. What are my chances for both?</p>

<p>“Do GPA and Test Scores really hold that much weight when it comes to admissions?”</p>

<p>Yes, GPA and test scores are the two most important parts of your application.
Being an out of state student makes it a little more difficult to get into Berkeley. Your GPA is slightly below average and your SAT score is far below average for Berkeley. You have great extracurriculars, but Berkeley is a High Match unfortunately. UC Santa Cruz is a Low Match.</p>

<p>^ what do you mean by “High Match” and “Low Match”</p>

<p>High Match - Your GPA and SAT are lower than average. Low Match - GPA and SAT are higher than average. If you improve your SAT score, you should be fine</p>

<p>Thanks man…Its a little too late for me to improve my scores, I get my decision in three weeks. It sucks, but maybe I can luck up</p>
