Berkeley chances? Current sophomore! Also, general chances?

At this point I think its still too early to give a meaningful chance. That being said…

A 3.9 GPA should look decent to Berkeley, or any other top school. 3.9 certainly won’t hurt you if you manage to keep it for the remainder of high school.

As for SATs: I scored a 197 on my sophomore year PSAT, and ended up with a 2310 after taking the SAT in my junior year. I didn’t do any SAT courses or “hardcore” prep– just diligent studying with some books. Try to get a 2200+. This matters a lot for top schools, and allows you to stand out for many of the other applicants.

Your doing well, and certainly seem to be on track to Berkeley. Best of luck!
