Hey,
UCLA is pretty much my dream school, I just don’t know how good my chances are?

I’m an in-state junior in high school. I’m white and I’m a girl. I moved to the US from Canada a few years ago, so I will be a first gen college student here. My weighted GPA is a 4.29 and my unweighted is a 3.8. I’m currently in 3 AP’s, I took one last year and I am planning on taking at least 4 senior year, and the rest of my classes are honors. I am taking the SAT in November, I think I’ll probably score around a 1450. I’ve been on honor roll all semesters and I have 40 service hours already.

I think my EC’s might be a little weak,
I’ve been in my schools community service club since freshman year. I am also apart of my schools communications/television production program. I intern at a well known studio in LA and I just joined NHS. I have also been playing piano for 6 years.

I plan on getting a job this year as well as go to Greece next summer to do volunteer work with refugees.
I plan on applying for film or marketing or anything communications really. I know film has a different admissions process, which do you think would be a better bet? Which SAT subject tests should I take?

I still have a year to improve, so any tips help! Thank you :))
