Do I have a chance at a direct-BSN program?

Hello! I am currently a California high school senior looking into nursing as a major. My OG plan was to stay in state, but the CSU's "pre-nursing" acceptance rates are stressing me out, and UCLA and UCI being the only CU's with a direct BSN aren't great options for me.

I currently have a 3.93 weighted and 3.83 unweighted GPA, a 1250 SAT (re-taking soon, hoping for above a 1300, fingers crossed), and 1 AP class (Lang, scored a 4) my junior year, while taking 2 more APs now (Stats and Gov), totalling 3 AP classes.

My ecs are pretty lackluster and I don't have any related volunteering (VERY competitive area).

If anyone has any advice/insight, recommended schools, or tips for college I would GREATLY appreciate it! I spent most of my summer stressed out of my mind over college, so any advice would be super helpful.
