<p>Worried about your GPA and your # of APs, BUT your film experience and ECs are impressive. I say you have a good chance.</p>

<p>Any idea what your scores will look like? those are kinda important.</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Match</p>

<p>Impressive ECs, terrible freshman year for the schools you have in mind, great film connections/experience and you computed your junior year W GPA wrong unless you only took 4 courses in each semester that year or took more honors courses than you said.</p>

<p>You should apply to Princeton, Stanford, and the UCs--all of which throw out your freshman year. These are your best chances for the type of school you have in mind. Obviously, rating your chances is next to impossible without the test scores.</p>

<p>You can apply to Harvard, Yale, and Dartmouth--but if you get in it will be because of the awards and film connection (and test scores?), not because of the grades--so figure out how to get these highlighted in your app and essays.</p>

<p>I also must say I'm a bit surprised you aren't interested in USC or NYU--both of which have well-known film schools. But as a UCLA alumnus, I'm glad you are more interested in a "good" school (yes, I'm joking--both USC and NYU are great schools also).</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
