<p>Overall, yes, stats are more important. However, not necessarily at campus. Your UC GPA is great and your SAT is good, so those already give you a good shot at Davis. However, Davis weighs the essays and ECs a lot more than others, and it uses a point system, etc. I wouldn’t consider it a “in”, but a good shot, even with less than awesome essays.</p>
