FULL DISCLOSURE: I have already applied to all the schools on my list so there is no more adding or deleting schools. I just need to know if I’ve completely ruined myself by applying only to reach schools.

4 plate deadlift is my guess

That’s all you applied to??? I don’t know about all the UC’s but you’re schools are reaches for everyone. Add some safeties many less selective school’s don’t have deadlines until the 15th. You’re very competitive but no ones guaranteed at those schools.

Nah she’s fine. She’ll get into UC Davis, Irvine, San Diego, etc.
