I’m honestly scared for my life right now. I want to major in poli sci and hope to get into Pomona College(EDing), UCLA, UCI, Columbia, Colgate… those are just some of my choices.
But I’m not sure where I can even get accepted to with my academics.

SAT: 1260 (retaking and recently took the ACT)
Ranked:70/388
Culmative GPA: 3.5 unweighted
UC GPA: 3.2
CSU GPA: 3.1
Extracurricular: Varsity swim for 2 yrs (also swam at recreational centers since elementary, I had to quit swim cause I moved schools), Guitar Club founder/president 2 yrs, Environmental Club president 1 yr, Dance Club president 2yrs, choreographer for 4 yrs, YUCA Modern(dance team) for 2 yrs(1 yr choreographer), Student Council Treasurer for 1 yr, LA Youth 2 yrs, school newspaper for 1 yr, I take classes at a local city college

If my chances don’t seem bright for any of those schools, what schools do you guys recommend? PLEASE HELP! I’m really scared I’m not gonna make it anywhere!
