What are my chances of getting into UCI?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

I’m currently a junior at my high school, and I’m stressing over college already. The courses I’m currently taking are AP US History, AP Bio, AP Lang, trigonometry, computer science, and TA.
I’m doing well in most of my classes, but the quarter is ending soon for grading (around January 22) and i hope to get my grades up. Currently they are:
AP Lang: A
Trigonometry: A
Computer science: A
AP us history: C+
AP Bio: C
TA: A
I plan on getting the AP bio and APUSH grades up so I’ll have a 3.6 uw GPA by the end of the quarter.

But since I’m stressing about colleges already, I want to know what my chances are of getting into UCI. I took my first sat in November and got 1910(650cr/570math/690w), and took it in December and plan on taking it in January as well. I don’t know the December score yet, but plan on improving the January one should it be lower.
For ec I did cross country sophomore year and track from freshman year to present. I’ve done some volunteer work and used to cheer, dance, and sing a little bit.
I really want to go to UCI and major in computer game science because I like coding and video games but I don’t know how much of a chance I have ATM. Any advice or tips?

computer game science isn’t a major

It actually is at Uc Irvine.

UW GPA means nothing… What’s your weighted UC GPA including 10th and 11th grades?

10th grade I took all normal classes, so it was a 3.5.
Im in the middle of junior year right now, but 4.16 by the end of the quarter(hopefully when my AP grades get up to B’s).

Even if you get straight A’s in spring, you’ll still be slightly under 4.0 weighted. You might get into UCI but unlikely for the CS major. Same goes for UCD and UCSB. Your best bet is likely UCSC.

Here is the UC GPA calculator: http://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/

At the end of Junior year, calculate your UC GPA. You want a 4.0+ for the best chances at UCI. UCI loves High GPA’s and can be more forgiving with lower test scores. Your SAT score is within range but you need to bump up that GPA. Also HS course rigor is important. Once you have your UC GPA and final test scores, repost and you can have a proper chancing. Good Luck.
