i would disagree wih you thebrown, ucsb’s average admit had significantly higher gpa than the poster. ucsb’s average admit was a 3.88 gpa and a 1236 old sat (http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/selecting/camp_profiles/camp_profiles_ucsb.html). the posters has a 3.5 weighted gpa, which makes his chances a slight reach or reach. but you are correct in that you never know with uc admissions, as admissions to some uc’s are random. the average admit to ucsd was a 4.01, and a 1306 old sat (http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/selecting/camp_profiles/camp_profiles_ucsd.html). ucsd is deffiantly a reach or likely a large reach for the poster. uc’s also usually way gpa more important than sat, but if the poster scores well on his sat’s then his chances will go up, especially for santa barbara.
