<p>Personal Statements:
Essay 1 - Talked about how my grandparents died my sophomore/junior year and it affected me emotionally. Played Taps at Grandpa’s funeral and played jazz music at old folks homes as a rememberance of my grandpa. </p>

<p>Essay 2- Talked about my experience in high school through the band program. I really have both a talent and a passion for music and it is something I want to continue throughout college (just not as a major).</p>

<p>Thanks for any chances. I know my GPA and SATs may be low, but I feel like I did what they asked for which is challenge myself in high school. I took a very hard courseload and participated in band year long. </p>

<p>-Thanks again!</p>

<p>UCI might be a slight reach, but UCR and UCSC look fine.</p>

<p>Oh sorry left those out. </p>

<p>570 Math 2
480 U.S. History - (Took U.S. history during summer so I did not have that much info on it)</p>

<p>Thanks for the thoughts sheer. Anyone know about SDSU? How much priority do i get for being in the priority district? Thanks everyone!</p>

<p>Being 3.0+ GPA should make you a shoe-in for all CSUs, as well as UCR and UCSC. Irvine/Davis will be a bit harder to get in, though.</p>

7

<p>I think you’re in all, but UCD and UCI are questionable.</p>

<p>However, UC’s like all rounded people, so I’m not sure.</p>

8

<p>im from california… ur pretty set for riverside and ucsc, sdsu. davis and irvine will be a little tough for you</p>

<p>the stats are similar to the thousands that apply every year though…</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies everyone. I really appreciate the input. </p>

<p>Any realistic percentages? I know it is hard to say but like what am I looking at for UCR UCSC and SDSU? UCD and UCI? </p>

<p>Thanks again CC’ers :D</p>
