I'll keep this short and candid
CA resident, 16 year old white male senior (yes, I'm young), both parents went to Berkeley (too bad legacy means nothing at UCs)
2290 single sitting, 4.0 unweighted UC gpa (~4.27 weighted) with 3 aps/1 honors. 790 math sat 2, expecting around ~750 bio sat 2 in like 2 weeks (will probably retake).
Taking only AP classes next year - English, Psych, Econ, Macro, Micro, Physics c (mechanics and electrosomething)
My school is very highly ranked and we send around 25 kids to berkeley every year. About 30-40% of kids go to top 20 schools.
I have pretty good/unique ECs. I didn't start any nonprofits or anything, but they're decent. Essays will be pretty good, but I'm not a phenomenal writer. This summer I'll be attending a really selective program at UC Davis and will be doing 6 weeks of research and writing a journal quality paper about biology or something. I don't know what my project is yet.
Sorry that wasn't as short as I wanted it to be… Anyways, can you guys chance me for berkeley, ucla, sd, and davis? Or just any UC I guess. Do I have any chance at regent scholarships? Thanks!
