Your Test scores are low for UCSD and your GPA needs to be at least 4.0+ since it is very competitive. First generation will help and you have really good EC’s. You do not mention what grade you are in? If you are able, get that GPA up a little and retake either SAT/ACT and aim for a 2100+/30+ to have a chance. Good Luck. </p>
