Getting a 26 on the ACT good enough for UC's?

Question

I'm taking it again next year when I'll be a senior, and I know my score will go up but as of now I got a 26, I have a 4.17 weighted GPA, involved in extra curriculars/sports,taking classes at community college.. etc

I would really love to apply to UCSB, UCSD, UCI,

UCLA (I HIGHLY doubt i will get in).

Answer 1

thats an good score, and a good GPA, but admissions also depends on many other factors like activities and personal statement. But I wouldn't worry too much I got into UCSB, UCSD, and UCI with an ACT score of 24

Answer 2

You have a high chance to get into UCSB, UCSD, and UCI. UCLA, perhaps, depending on your extra curricular. But it looks like you are well rounded. Your GPA is up there, and 26 is not a bad score. In fact, I got a 25 on my ACT, and I only took it once. Guess where I'm going? UCLA. So, you have a chance, don't worry. If you attempt the ACT again, I'm sure you can increase it and make yourself look better to get into your dream school. I hope I gave you confidence! Oh, and I got into UCLA, UCI, UCSD, and UCB.
