Chance a junior for mostly cali schools

Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>Hi, currently I am a junior in a public california high School( Very high api and National blue ribbon school) that usually sends around 100 students to various UCs and other very prestigious schools.</p>

<p>My goal for a future career is to become a law enforcement officer such as LAPD,LASD or CHP or possibly atf and fbi</p>

<p>The current schools that I am looking at are
UCI for criminology
UCSB for bus economics
UCSC for economics
UCD for econ
UCR for bus administration or economics/law and society
SDSU for business possibly law
UofA for business</p>

<p>My G.P.A. for the time I start applying will be a UC g.p.a. of 3.71 with numerous honors and ap courses. I have taken the Sat 1 once and have received a score of 1770 with a 650 math, 560 reading and a 560 writing with a 8 essay. I plan on retaking the sat 1 in oct. and based on current practice testa, hope to receive a score around 1870. I am taking sat 2s this weekend and hope to get at least a 650 US history, 600 bio, and a 590 Lit</p>

<p>My ecs include over 200 community service hours from volunteering at my cites local library helping kids to read and t enjoy reading, volunteering at a local mountain restoration trust, and various other things involving my community. I also am a member of my schools newly formed chess club, play guitar, and have worked for 8 months.</p>

<p>Hopefully you guys can help me understand a little more about my chances at these schools, and i greatly appreciate your help</p>

<p>Is that GPA weighted or unweighted? If your weighted GPA is above 3.9, you should have no problem at all</p>

<p>It will help if you are in the top 10% of your class</p>

<p>If you can bring your SAT up to 1900ish like you projected, and Im guessing that 3.71 is unweighted, hopefully your weighted is higher, and you rank in the top 10%, you are in at all of the schools listed</p>

<p>You should get into SC, R, Arizona and the SDSU. A high 1800’s SAT will put you in the running for the rest.</p>

<p>If you’re struggling with the SATs, I would try taking the ACTs.</p>

<p>Based on your current stats, I think you have a very good chance at SDSU, UCR and UCSC.
Davis, SB and Irvine aren’t out of the question either.</p>
