I’m only really familiar with UChicago as both my parents were grad students there and my sister was accepted undergrad. Obviously, your SATs are quite low for Chicago, and unfortunately they don’t look at writing, which is your highest score…I know the SAT is an evil evil test. Your GPA is quite good, although not excellent for Chicago, however you have taken rigorous classes which is also good. It’s definitely an enormous reach, however if you can write a really amazing couple of essays, and get really amazing letters of reccomendations, I think they won’t be as concerned with your stats. As a California student, I can tell you that the UCs are much more numbers based. I’d say UC Berkeley is out of reach because they really care about SATs. I’m not so sure about UCI…For the other schools try looking at College Board, they give each schools stats.
