How come Berkeley has 98% of the freshman class in the top 10%?
UCSD has 100% (!!!!!) in the top 10%.
( According to pr0wler and college data )
Seriously, this is higher than all of the Ivies.
Are these numbers not accurate? There definitely seems to be some sort of cutoff...
I'm an OOS student in the top 15% of my class (Texas), but only because I was an idiot freshman year. I had a huge (HUGE) upward trend sophomore and junior years. I would easily be in the top 10% if I had similar grades freshman year, Do the UC's recalculate rank for only sophomore and junior years?
I have a 33 on my act, with solid sat subject scores ( not phenomenal - 720s-730s ), and pretty solid ecs.
I thought I was a solid candidate for the UC's, but if I have less than a 3% chance of getting in, and a 0% chance for UCSD, I don't see why it would be worth even applying. So much for "holistic" admissions.
What's with these percentages?
