Applying to College

<p>if so, can you please let me know some stats about your high school career. i.e. GPA, SAT, grades, AP tests…</p>

<p>i am a junior and i am doing pretty well; however, my first SAT score was pretty low [1700], but i am planning on bringing it up. as well, my freshman year was a little off. i got one C and a few Bs… but my sophomore and first semester of junior year i received all As and one B. this year i have 5 AP classes as well. i am really involved and i am in asb, nhs, csf, key, interact, vball… i will be NHS president and a high position in ASB… i also have a job tutoring kids and volunteer at a hospital. so, what are my chances?</p>

<p>Well I can’t help but notice that you are a member of the KKK so I don’t know</p>

3

<p>i am not a member of the kkk! </p>

<p>in fact, i doubt i will be allowed in the kkk. haha. i didn’t notice that. hmmm…</p>

<p>ooh. i left out some information</p>

<p>umm… i am 29/468 in my class. however, i have ASB as a zero period therefore it brings down my rank. my college weighted gpa is a 4.5 and regular weighted is 4.4. nonweighted is 3.9. however, it is will go up slightly when i finish my junior year. i am also in JSA, and i have been to a number of conferences. in asb i have attended camps. my summers are busy with volunteering and asb. next year i will have 5 ap classes and asb, so i will only have 6 classes since asb is a zero period. i passed my last ap test, ap european history with a three and i hope to pass more. </p>

<p>everything is steady except my freshman year [but they don’t look at that, do they?] </p>

<p>ooh. do they take the highest sat scores too ?</p>

<p>You’d have a good chance. Go to the ‘chances’ forum and look at the thread on ‘actual results’ – there are many responses on Berkeley and UCLA in there.</p>

6

<p>This should help you out - UCs don’t count freshman year.
Bring up your SATs a little, and you’ll have as good a shot as anyone.</p>

7

<p>honestly, you need 2000+ for ucla and berkeley unless you have some really amazing ecs</p>

8

<p>Practice the SAT, get 2000 and you’re probably in. Get 2100 and you can take a breath. Get 2200 and chill out. Get 2300 and know that you’re in. Get 2400 and decide to apply to Harvard.</p>

9

<p>@SQL Yep, get 2400 and you’re probably in Harvard. I think soo</p>

10

<p>^^ no. There have been numerous cases in which perfect scorers are rejected. Top colleges like Harvard like to brag about how many perfect scorers they reject, it seems.</p>

<p>yea i got into one of those two with a 3.9 weighted and an 1800…i only took it one time (no asian parents). My Extra curriculars were really good though. I’m a really active kid.</p>
