Reach

A student with an unweighted GPA of 3.5–3.7 and an ACT of 25–27 applying to University of California-San Diego is in the Reach range. University of California-San Diego does not look at SAT or ACT scores, so this verdict reads the GPA only. University of California-San Diego admits 27% of applicants.

For this band, the estimate reads the middle of the band, an unweighted GPA of 3.6 (the ACT plays no part here), so a student's own numbers can land differently. It also weighs only the numbers; essays, activities and course rigor count too.
