<p>It was a trap! But since you are here....I would really appreciate a chance for UCLA, UC Berkeley, UCSB, and UCSD. I'm applying to School of Engineering.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>UW GPA: 3.83
UC GPA:4.34</p>

<p>Coming from a fairly rigorous school, I'm ELC qualified. </p>

<p>ACT: Comp:35 SR:36 R:36 M:34 W:33 Combined W/essay:30</p>

<p>SAT: 1500/2190 (Verbal:800 Math:700 W:690)</p>

<p>SATIIs: USH:790 MathII:760 Chem:790</p>

<p>APs: 5s on everything (Calc AB, Chem, Enviro Sci, Euro History, US History)</p>

<p>Sports: Cross country, Tennis, Sailing (I'm not very good at any of them. lol)</p>

<p>Course load: rigorous (currently taking AP Bio, AP Physics C, AP English, AP Stats, Computer Programming, and Econ)</p>

<p>ECs:
Sea Cadets- 4 years, highest ranking cadet in unit, lots of leadership opportunity, summer staffing, etc.
Volunteer with Chabot Space and Science Center- 2 years. </p>

<p>I've had three different jobs in high school, and I've been working for the last 2 years, 9 hours a week for a Navy Vet, with household chores and home maintenance. </p>

<p>Personal Statement 1: My father died when I was seven, so I talked about how that has affected my life, made me grateful for the things I have, work harder, etc. </p>

<p>Personal Statement 2: About Sea Cadets and leadership and how the program has benefited me, and made me want to serve. </p>

<p>Other Stuff: I've received scholarships from AFROTC and NROTC for UCLA, just keeping my fingers crossed for admission. </p>

<p>Thank you very much,</p>

<p>Oh, and I'm a California Resident.</p>

<p>I’m in Letters and Science but your stats seem pretty good compared to all my friends in Engineering.</p>

<p>I’d accept you haha.</p>

<p>I’d say you’re in like flynn.
My roommate is going to UCLA next year and she has nowhere near the stats you have.
G’luck, bro.</p>

<p>I think you’d be almost competitive even as an international applying to engineering. But thankfully you’re in-state. You’re in to Berkeley and the rest of the schools on your list.</p>

<p>Thank you so much, I really appreciate the feedback!</p>
