What college should I aim for ?

<p>I want to major in engineering ,but i a mediocre gpa of 3.4 and only took 1 AP class my whole high school life. I really want to get into a UC but my chances are obviously slim. Do you think I'll at least will get accepted into Cal states ? Also which one has a better outlook for the future mechanical or electrical engineering ? Please help me ,and thank you for your time ! </p>

<p>SAT/ACT scores?? GPA 3.4 UC weighted or unweighted? Both ME and EE have good outlooks, with ME probably the more in demand major now. Are you a Junior?</p>

<p>Yes I’m a junior but i would predict my scores to be pretty average. Do you think cal states would accept me though ?</p>

<p>I would apply to UCR or UCM if you are interested in the UC’s, you do have a chance if your SAT/ACT scores are 1800/25. Which Cal State is in your service area? (you will get priority there.) Other Cal States to consider: CPP, Sac State, CSULA, CSUN, Cal State Fresno which I believe have both EE and ME. ME will be more competitive than EE. Good Luck and keep up your grades and study hard for the SAT/ACT. </p>

<p>Ok thank you very much.</p>
