Hello guys. I am a Senior in San Diego, CA who’s #1 choice for college is the University of Washington. My unweighted gpa from grades 10-12 is 3.32 and weighted of 3.68. However, I had a 3.17 weighted and a 3.0 unweighted Sophomore year, followed by a 4.23 weighted and 3.7 unweighted Junior Year. I have an SAT of 1920 and an ACT of 27.

I am taking 5 AP classes this year(Senior year) and as a Junior took 3 AP classes. I also go to a school that had 20+ kids go to UC Berkeley last year and is one of the best public schools in the state. My extra-curriculars include over 140 hours of volunteer work, JV Basketball, Previous jobs, a science club and a screenwriter on my own time.

So what do you guys think my chances are? I am an out-of-state student, obviously, who has shown a VERY positive grade trend lately. My SAT score is VERY slightly below the UW average, but only by like 20 points and my ACT is in the same boat. Any insight? thanks so much!
