How I got into 5 out of 6 UC Schools that I applied to (Stats, GPA, Extracurriculars)

Hey y’all! After the last college decision reaction video that I posted, I have been getting a lot of requests for my stats, so here in this video, I will be sharing the my stats, GPA, score, extracurriculars, and awards that got me into 5 out of 6 UC schools that I applied to. But just remember, each person is unique in their own ways and your stats and extracurriculars will be different from everybody else to a certain degree. Please only take my high school stats as a reference, and continue to pursue what you are truly passionate about. Y’all will do incredible on your college applications!

UC schools that I applied to and their majors:
✅UCLA - Math / Applied Science - Accepted and Committed (Go Bruins!)
✅UC Irvine, UC Davis, UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara - Electrical Engineering - Accepted
⭕️UC Berkeley - Engineering Math / Statistics - Waitlisted (still no result)

Please leave a comment down below if you have any questions in regards to college applications, or specifically in regards to the UC application.

Thanks y’all! Follow me on Instagram @jpeterwang7 and @peterjwang

Hey, for your research paper, did you have a mentor in that specific area of study or was it completely independent? I am curious because I want to do something similar but do not know if I need a mentor or not.

You are so smart, you doing so great, i dont know how i can even get into UCLA

Bro, Berkeley is top 10 university of the world, how can you choose UCLA over Berkeley?
Congrats with UCLA btw!!!

[bandsweretaken]

How many schools in total did you apply to? also did you have to apply to UC schools separately or did you apply through the common application, 'm asking because on the common app there is only 10 extracurriculars but you had more.

[raymondgao]

For extracurricular do would they want more with leadership involvement like I'm the programming lead for my school's vex robotics next year will that count?

[BLPkaiden]

I would like to join VEX Robotics and was wondering how u would go about such a thing? Did your highschool have it available as a club or did you join outside of your highschool?

Im a junior in high school, an out of state student
and don’t have AP/Honors classes on my transcript, however I do have a 3.81 gpa, and would like to go to UCLA to study political science (which supposedly is 25% easier to get into) according to admissions data, and my extracurriculars include Model UN, Mock Trial, Students demand Action, Best Buddies, director of fundraising in the current events club, volunteering with school, and Student Council (where I might become secretary)
Can I Still get in to UCLA given my strong Extracurricular activities?

So you went to high school in CA which is why you got into UC's. The schools that rejected you lost out. I think there is an anti Asian bias at a lot of private schools because so many that apply are super qualified and the student body would be majority Asian. UC's are not able to consider race but they have to give priority to CA residents so the most competitive UC's are majority Asian. People like you are what make the University of California the greatest university system in the world.

How/where did you find Chem Honors as a summer course?! I wanted to take it but I couldn’t find it anywhere 😭

[diversefornow]

I would love to know how you published your research. I’m a freshman and this whole year I have been working on a couple teen psych and mental health papers/research. I truly want to help the community beyond college APS and share my work with my community

[wallace]

[Arnoldismouldy]
