<p>Your 1240 M+V SAT puts you right around the median of accepted ACES students (1160-1310 middle 50%), but your weighted GPA of 3.5-3.6 is pretty low, especially since California high schools tend to have pretty high grade inflation (not sure if they’ll factor that in though). For example, UCSC has an average UC GPA of around 3.7, and they’re in the bottom third of UCs. For what it’s worth, UIUC doesn’t discriminate against out-of-state students like the UCs do, and ACES is the least selective college at UIUC.</p>
