<p>UCI- reach
UCSB- reach
UCSC- low reach
UCR- already in lol
UCDavis- reach
What did you get on your SAT or ACT? Congratulations on UCR! i’m saying the other UC’s are reaches though because your GPA just isn’t up there with those schools averages (UCI- 4.01, UCSB- 3.9, UCSC- 3.7, UCD- 4.0) Have you taken AP/honors classes throughout high school? If you have also remember that the UC GPA could be lower than you’re actual high school GPA (which totally sucks i know…) good luck!</p>

<p>btw, i am a transfer student not in highschool from a california community college</p>
