UC’s are very GPA focused so you want to be at or above the average UC capped weighted GPA for any campuses of interest. Also major can have a significant impact on your chances, since the more competitive/impacted the major, the higher the stats will be needed.

The UC’s review applications based on 14 area’s of criteria and each school will weight each area differently so there is no one size fits all. They are also looking for a well rounded diverse class of admits that “fits” their campus.

Since you are asking about Davis, here is their selection criteria and a link to the decision posts:

The best way to compare your chances is to look at the decision threads for each UC and see the information posted for the accepted/rejected and waitlisted posters.

You can also use the UC Freshman profile posted on the UC website for comparison. http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/freshman/profiles/index.html
