Pepperdine, UCLA, UCI, or USC

Applying to College
1

<p>I’m looking to go to college in the LA area and Pepperdine, UCLA, UCI, and USC are my top four choices, I was wondering how much of a shot I have at any of them:</p>

<p>3.6 unweighted GPA, 1880 SATS (660 CR, 540 Math, 680 Writing) and retaking them,
Honors and AP classes, three year varsity swimming and next year captain,leadership positions including President with the Keystone Club with whom I’ve done hundreds of hours of comm. service</p>

<p>Please give me your opinion as I’ve seen conflicting information about who these schools accept online, thanks</p>

<p>For any of the UC admit rate chances, go to “Custom Tables” on the link below, answer a few questions, and put in up to 3 “mean characteristics” at a time such as GPA and overall SAT score:</p>

<p>I would say the obvious things-- raise your GPA and test scores to improve your chances, particularly at USC and UCLA, which at this point in time would have to be considered reaches.</p>
