<p>Thank you for your help!</p>

<p>We can’t answer and wont know anything until you take your SAT’s. GPA counts but SAT’s count even more so. </p>

GPA is FAR more significant and important than SAT and ACT scores; what are you talking about?</p>

<p>I’m just asking whether or not I am on the right track. I know I don’t have SAT/Junior year information yet. Thank you for your help.</p>

<p>What is your uw GPA?
Everyone is on the right track until they fall short in some area. It is hard to predict the future, particularly when it is a couple years away and without sufficient data.</p>

<p>I posted my number of As and Bs but my unweighted GPA is 3.67 for first semester of sophomore year and 4.0 for every other semester so far. Assume my junior year I will not drop my GPA lower than 4.3 or my unweighted lower than 3.67</p>

<p>UCSC is definitely going to be a safety. Davis will probably be a safety, maybe a low match. Without scores on SAT/ACT, UCLA and Cal are going to more difficult to predict (and they’re already fairly difficult to predict). That being said, your GPA is in great shape for both of them. Don’t know anything about Wisconsin or Michigan.</p>

<p>Remember, UCs use a UC GPA and do not count Freshman year.</p>
