What are my chances of getting into UC Merced?


What are my chances of getting into UC Merced?
I currently attend a private high school in San Jose California as a senior. As deadlines are approaching, I feel myself getting more and more nervous about college, so it would be greatly appreciated if you guys could give me back some informative feedback. Academics: GPA: 3.05 SAT: 1760 SAT II: still to be taken (taking them in history and literature) Extra Curricular: football 1 year cross country 1 year track 2 years learning to play guitar black belt in karate (6 years commitment) worked at an NASA for summer internship program in robotics worked at an SAT class as a promoter for the class (actual job with pay) AAU basketball 1 year JV MVP cross country Student Government (5th grade) ...lol Honor Role 2 years Please help, input containing statistics and percent chance would be great, thanks again. Also, i had received a D in general science freshman year which i took again in a summer course and got an A. I know that UCs don't take freshman or senior grades, but i wanted to know if that would affect my chances. 20 points to best answer
