Chances at getting into UCI

The acceptance rate of 43%, average SAT of 1239 and average UC GPA of 3.98 puts in you a better position for Pharmaceutical Sciences than Engineering. I would say UCI is a Match school. UCSB/UCD probably High Match and UCSD a Low Reach. Hopefully you have some safety schools on your list and best of luck. UC’s can be unpredictable but your stats on target.
