I’d say you have a pretty good chance.
I had a similar GPA to yours just a slightly higher UW, and I got into UCSD and UCI, majoring in Mechanical Engineering as well.
As far as essays, if people think they are amazing, then I’d say you probably can get into UCI, and for your EC - I think you had more than me, for I only had around 50-60 volunteer hours, a couple of clubs, and a Robotics Team.
Your ACT score seems decent, and it fits with most of your choices.
I’d say:
Good chance for UCI
UCLA might be a reach, but I’m sure you can get in.
UCSB decisions are out today aren’t they? I hope you got in!
USC I’m pretty sure you can get in, but it might be a reach like UCLA.
UCB seems to be a little tougher, so just keep your hopes up. You’ve done great and I’m sure you’ll get into one of your top choices.
Good luck!
