Average SAT scores, average GPA, and acceptance rate of UC Davis, Riverside, and Santa Cruz:

UC Davis: 1290, 3.99, 41%

UC Riverside: 1170, 3.6, 60%

UC Santa Cruz: 1210, 3.66, 53%

Your SAT score is only above average for Riverside; its pretty close to the Santa Cruz average but its far from the Davis average. GPA is below average at all the UCs that you mentioned, so thats definitely going to lower your chances of getting in. Its good that you’ve taken multiple honors classes and 3 AP classes, although I have to say that a 3 in APUSH and AP Psych is pretty low for those schools, and the fact that you’re only 119 from 298 students will also lower your chances of getting in. Its too bad that you don’t have many ECs, since that could’ve increased your chances of getting in. Also, don’t ever play the victim on your college essays! Trust me, colleges frown upon students who have not learned from situations such as depression and who lack the ability to take responsibility for their own actions. Overall, I think you could get into Riverside. Santa Cruz is more of a reach and Davis is not likely at all.

Good Luck! Lux Sit
