<p>Ouch. Thanks though stambliark41 for your opinion. =D</p>

11

<p>buummmmmmmmmp!</p>

<p>How about them private schools?</p>

12

<p>BUMP!~ I want to konw if I should even apply to the last 4.</p>

13

<p>from the guidance i was given: stats like yours will surely land you in the UC's but im not sure about the others. srry</p>

14

<p>Well, thanks anyways for your opinion. =]</p>

<p>Anyone else? Please?</p>

15

<p>bump...bump...</p>

16

<p>Curious, why would anyone apply to both Pomona and Harvey Mudd?</p>

17

<p>If you're a girl and you show real passion for engineering on your app, you might have a shot at Caltech. A girl at my school last year got in with worse SAT I/IIs, but better ECs (although her ECs weren't math/science related).</p>

18

<p>Haha I'm a guy, so I guess my chances are slim?</p>

<p>To gmman: actually I'm not going to apply to Pomona. I just saw the application and I hate it. =&lt;/p>

<p>As of now I have applied to:</p>

<p>UCB
UCLA
UCSD
UCI
USC
Caltech
Harvey Mudd
(not applying to Stanford and Pomona)</p>

<p>Are there any other schools in California that I have a shot at?</p>

19

<p>That's not a reason not to apply to a school. </p>

<p>I think you should try applying outside of California! You'd have a shot at Ivies, MIT, etc..</p>

20

<p>HAHA! With my SAT scores? Fat chance!</p>

<p>Honestly, I do not like Pomona's application (partially because I would have to rewrite my essays.) I think one question asked for a photograph or something, but whatever. I don't think I have a chance at Pomona. If I get into HMC I would most likely go there.</p>

<p>My parents don't want me going OOS, so basically I'm limited to the UCs and several privates.</p>
