Hey everyone, I was just wondering how hard it is to get into UCI as an out of state applicant? (I’m from Texas) I’m gonna apply to the school of Criminology, Law, and Society pretty soon. UCI is one of my reach schools.

I have a 3.55 unweighted GPA, and a 4.41 weighted GPA on a 5.0 scale, and am in the top 17% of my class as of now…I think I might’ve moved up a little bit though. I got an 1820 (600 reading, 630 math, 590 writing) on my SAT and will retake it this October…hopefully I’ll crack a 2000 or something close to that.

I was the principal in my school’s band and symphony orchestra for two years until my parents made me quit, am in NHS, FNHS, and have a few other activities. I’ve gotten a good amount of awards and honors from flute/band related things, too.

Oh, and how many subject tests do y’all recommend taking? I’m planning on taking just one or two right now; biology and maybe math II.
