Do I have a shot at UCSB?

My UC gpa is 3.57. My ACT is 28. My SAT II's are Math: 610, Lit: 570 (I'm retaking both to raise my scores). I have a lot of volunteer hours (200+).
I am in Christian Club, Outreach Club (vp of Christian Club). Member of National Honor Society.
Got a 4 on my AP Calculus AB test.
Currently taking Calculus BC AP, Physics, English AP, Video II, and Government.
Thanks!!

Yeah, you have a shot. It depends on how much UCs are cutting admission this year though.

according to the stats, the average gpa for admits (not matriculating) was a 4.01 and a SAT score of 1877 (yours is about 1950). everything else looks good, but your GPA is bordering the low side of the spectrum. http://www.instadv.ucsb.edu/93106/20...admission.html

Thanks, I am worried about the cuts also...things are such a mess here in CA. Sigh. UCSB is one of my top choices, so I hope I get in. I appreciate the feedback.
