<p>Definitely go for the UCs. I think that if you do a lot more impressive EC’s that relate to your chosen major, you’ll be a competitive applicant for HYPS and the other Ivies. Just make sure that you choose EC’s that relate to your major so that you seem passionate about what you want to study. Passion is key; convey it in your essays! Taking the SAT one more time to get a 2300+ might not be a bad idea. Good luck!!
