<p>No …</p>

<p>umm YES and why are you applying to UCSB with those stats? You could get into a much better school.</p>

<p>Some people want the UCSB experience. The two times I took tours at UCSB, both tour guides got into UCLA and still chose UCSB over it. He’s also posting this on lots of boards, so he/she is probably just looking at the chances. Anyway, UCSB is a safety for you.</p>

<p>No offense tho, but he should know his chances… with a 2200 and 4.0 uw… it seems hes just trying to get attention, IMHO.</p>

<p>Sorry, it’s my safety so I just wanted to confirm that I will get in.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
