?Yale?Berkeley?USC?

<p>I'm a sophmore and i have attended community college to get a glimpse of what college is like. anyways i would like to get some opinions on how to get to my goal colleges which are USC, UC Berkeley, and Yale.
my grade point average from last semester was 3.60 i'm going to take more college courses at another community college. i'm looking forward to study architecture so i'm also taking drafting class in school. i have not taken my SATs yet, but i will be taking SAT prep courses and right after that i'll be taking my SATs. i would just like some opinions on how to improve to gear towards the colleges i want and what your experiences were on getting into those three colleges! </p>

<p>thanks for reading this!

<p>community classes don't give you an accurate view on actual college classes. if you want that kind of experience, go to a college like ucb and ask to see if you can enter a lecture. stay dedicated to your interests and build on them. so if you're interested in architecture, maybe intern at a company that specializes in architecture and things like that. you probably live in california so you should also look at cal poly - slo, which has a top architecture program. hopefully that helps. you're probably asian so i'm also going to say dont let names be the main factor in your college determining</p>
