<p>If you're instate, you have an excellent shot at all of the schools on your list. Biggest reach will be UCB, but it is for everyone. Remember - the UC's won't care about freshman year so that won't be held against you. Of course, that's just my guestimate. No one can really predict your chances with 100% certainty - but you should do well. Best of luck.</p>

<p>yeah i kno that they dont consider them as far as gpa, but i included this because one of the criteria they stated was improveing trend in grades.</p>

<p>how much will a bad writing score affect my admissions to an engineering major?</p>

<p>A bad writing score will affect your admission chances just as much as in any other major.</p>

<p>UCLA: Slight Reach (Bioengineering)
UCB: Slight Reach (Bioengineering)
UCSD: Match (Bioengineering)
UCI: Safety
Cal Poly SLO: Safety</p>
