with the uc app closing in a week, im really having doubts of weather i should submit my application or not, i mean most of the time people who ask that have pretty good grades and e.c., they're just insecure and all, but i actually dont have that good of a grade/e.c. here's the stat.
applying to all uc, except mercde (all psych major)
gpa(10-12): weighted 3.85/ unweighted 3.50
sat1: (1st time) 1970, essay 9 / (2nd time) 1990 essay 11
sat2: u.s. history: 720, chinese 800
5 aps so far + 4 more senior year
chinese 5
psych 4
lang 4
us history 4
world 4
EC. not alot
in 4 clubs but none with positions.
community service 330 at a senior care facility (over 3 years)+ ~40 elsewhere
T.A. for a foreign language school this year
2 years of foreign language + 1 AP (chinese) outside of school in addition
to 3 years of Spanish.
2 years of band.
thats just pretty much it
extra: some rather unfortunate things happened during the end of the freshman year so i didnt really do well in sophmore year. i had a 4.1 junior year but the bad sophmore year gpa really just screwed up my 10-12 gpa.
so can i maybe get in to a mid tier uc? (like irivine or s.b?) or mayybe even a top uc? (la or sd?)
thanks!
and since i go to a pretty competitive hs, my peer's doing really good, pretty much all of their gpa's is 4.2+ w/ alot of e.c's :/
