Chance me with good ecs but mid gpa

I don't really know what I'm going to major in but likely something finance related like quantitative analysis or economics UCSD is my dream school, also looking at UCI and UCSB, maybe Cal Poly Pomona. I'm in california My high school is a small public honors school, i'm around the top 10% (we don't officially rank) GPA: 3.85/4.16 using the UC calculation system SAT 1460 but i can definitely get higher, that was with no studying, probably can get ~1500 APs: Freshman: 0/0 Sophomore: 0/0 Junior: 2/3, apush and ap lang, got 4 on both exams Senior: 4/5, gov, stats, lit, and psych ECs: Sailing 2 years, 2 second place varsity trophies, the first one was the first trophy of any kind my school ever won (i'm going to write about that dw) Principal cellist in orchestra 3 years, it's a very good orchestra we are looking to perform in Carnegie Hall and tour Europe later this year I play cello in a rock band, we might get to play in the san diego music festival this year I do a lot of small music gigs playing cello guitar and drums, the biggest one was probably a series of presentations/performances to encourage kids in a local middle school to pursue music I do small projects in my free time, i built a guitar once, right now I'm working on a way to 3d print modern performance yo-yos, this could be big?
