<p>UCB: Match (out of state)</p>

<p>Looks good!
I think UCB’s out of state acceptance rate is something like 20%.</p>

<p>Berkeley’s a match.</p>

<p>A high powered public school in Missouri???</p>

<p>If you can get into Cal OOS, you can get into better undergrad schools that will be the same price or cheaper if you qualify for aid. Why would you spend $40K to stand on huge lines at a school were less than half graduate in 4 years?</p>

<p>Most UCs = matches - low reaches.</p>

<p>match. 75 percent to 90</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>one more bump</p>

<p>definitely match. Only weaknesses are OOS and only 6 APs. Your 2310 makes up for that FO SHO. The UCs love those SATs.</p>

<p>2310? nah he got a 2220 but still i think UCB is a match. good luck!</p>

<p>Only 6 APs? My college counselor said that someone applying who had taken 6 AP tests was “practically unheard of”.</p>

<p>he thought u meant 6 ap’s overall in hs, not just 6 tests, which would imply u took 6 ap courses BEFORE ur senior year, which is not unheard of on this site, but very very impressive otherwise, especially with your scores</p>
