During junior year, I had some family problems so my grades suffered a downward trend as well as my SATs because I had to go help my parents translate during the treatments; which took away a lot of my time. Also had to get a part-time job to compensate for my parent's unemployment due to sickness.

Community service Hours: ~900 hours from all the clubs and helped tutor high school students every day after school. Began accumulating the hours since 8th grade!
What are my chances of getting into the following:

UC Berkeley
UC LA
UC SD
UC Davis
also thinking about:
NYU
I would appreciate it if you can give me some feedback on how to get accepted to the high end UCs. I am the first person in my family to go to college. I searched around CC and my grades as well as test results does not seem to be as competitive as others.
