My gpa has a rising trend, I am expecting to finish the next two quarters with close to a 4.0
I currently attend UCSB

With this in mind, what are my chances at:

UCLA
USC
UC Davis
UC Hastings
Loyola
Pepperdine
George Washington
Boston University

Should I bother with top 10 schools like berkeley? Or am I just throwing away my money at this point?

I plan on submitting an addendum regarding my gpa, is it possible schools will wait list me and see how I do my last two quarters?

Sorry I meant URM. Mostly Middle Eastern. Got some Indian and Greek in me as well. Parents immigrated from Iran.

Unfortunately, you're not URM.

167/3.02 = enjoy WUSTL, Emory, UIUC, Minnesota. Your GPA is bad.

If you want to wait and get 170+, you could ED to UVA early next cycle.
