Berkeley and UCLA are considered equally prestigious. Rankings and admissions rates are about the same. For Neuroscience I’d give the edge to UCLA because of the medical school.
What’s Ivy+ material? Berkeley and UCLA kids are not below Ivy, you’re just being ridiculous. I’d take in state UCLA over Dartmouth or Cornell any day.
Not true at all. The gap between UC Berkeley and UCLA is huge. UC Berkeley is miles ahead.
It also doesn’t come close to any of the Ivy+ schools. Comparing any of the UCs to Dartmouth or Cornell is just delusional.
Their rankings are comparable to Dartmouth (13) and Cornell (12). Berkeley would be better for engineering, UCLA for health and life sciences, but you’re splitting hairs here, the individual qualities will matter more. For many families depending on finances and post undergrad plans, UCLA or Cal in state would make more sense. It doesn’t mean those kids are not Ivy+ material, just that they need to consider a multitude of factors.
Nope. This thread already discusses at length why the US News rankings are wrong, so I’m not going to repeat that here.
UCLA is second tier after UC Berkeley and everybody knows this. Denying it is like trying to convince yourself that your second place consolation prize is just as good as first place. UCLA is just a satellite campus within the UC system. The flagship is Berkeley.
Everybody knows this! Except, apparently, the nearly 2/3 of applicants who are accepted to both Cal and UCLA and who consistently choose to attend UCLA over Cal.
Incidentally, roughly same preference rate for UCLA over Cornell.
🤣🤣🤣
A lot of in state residents need to live close to home. For the same reasons they cannot leave the state. A combination of lacking independence and also needing to save money through in state tuition and being close to home.
Oh, that’s your explanation now for the fact that nearly twice as many cross-admitted applicants choose UCLA over Cal every year? Despite the fact that Cal is “miles ahead”?
Respectfully, GTFOH …
LA is popular with the TikTok generation. All the serious students are at Berkeley while UCLA gets these non-academic types.
+100 this student with 25 APs is a great example of the TikTok generation. No depth in knowledge. Just superficial and basic.
Right, he’s nothing like you, who went to college knowing not even superficial and basic college material.

Why are people skipping over this? If you don't answer the college's essay question and submit your own "edgy" essay, you didn't do it right.
They weren’t “edgy”, but “risky”, and “high risk high reward”.
My guess is that if someone would have edited and advised him on how to write a good essay, he would have gotten him into a top 10.
For most people dumping on the kid, how many of your own take AP calculus in 9th and have the drive to self study for AP Physics C because the school offers only algebra based physics? The kid has grit, while the downers see grind.
He will do fine at UCLA, and from what I’ve seen it’s a better fit for him than the other colleges he applied to.
His accomplishments that you mention are yawn. Not real accomplishments. What has he been able to achieve by taking Calculus slightly earlier, or by extending physics to include Calculus? He squandered it by doing nothing with it. Huge yawn.
Sure huge yawn, he should have started a nonprofit with mom’s help or compete in science fair with a topic closely aligned with dads PhD.
Taking calculus in 9th is 2-3 years ahead of the vast majority of students, considering the high school is 4 years it doesn’t make it slightly earlier. What should the kid have done with his Calculus Physics knowledge while in high school?
If you take it before college, what is the difference between taking it in 9th vs 11th? Zero difference.
Now if you could list off advanced math classes that he took, far beyond that, it would be a different situation.
The difference is that it allows taking all of the advanced core classes in high school. How many kids do you know that took all of Calculus BC, Statistics, Physics C, Chemistry, Biology, English (Language and Literature), History (US, European, World), Computer Science A, Foreign Language. These are top rigor courses and he got all As and 5s. I’d even add to this Micro and Macro economics.
That’s a real academic accomplishment. He could have done better with support on the college application process, but UCLA is still very good.
That sounds pretty normal. Again, not an accomplishment. These are just AP classes.
That’s not normal or ordinary. How many of these classes did yours take? The kid checked the box on rigor and grades with all these “just AP” classes. Obviously he had some shortcomings, phoning in the application last minute, weak essays, likely weak LOR since he went to three different high schools, but still has a strong high school record especially in academics.
Still I’d think UCLA is comparable with Cornell Ivy where his brother went and he’ll enter college as a Junior. How’s not graduating UCLA in two years an accomplishment? You really need to get out of your bubble.
I personally took every single one of those APs you mentioned and never considered it an accomplishment. It was normal. My accomplishments were other things that I did
Furthermore, the kid has not graduated college in 2 years. You are making that part up. Graduating college early only makes sense if you have something great lined up afterwards. Otherwise you are just unemployed.
lol. Sure you took every single one of them, honey, it was just normal for you. Online everyone is top rigor with national level awards and recognition. Care you share what major and at what college you ended up?
While he didn’t graduate in 2 years, the kid said he’s entering UCLA as a Junior, putting him solidly on that path.
You sound so silly, you’re likely still in high school, if not middle school. Graduating early will save him about $100k. Dumb kids with useless majors will be unemployed after college, but I guarantee he’s not one of them. You on the other hand, I’m not so sure.
Why is taking a normal AP course load so hard to believe? All of my peers during high school did the same. I ended up double majoring in college since it was pretty easy to do and going directly into grad school.
Do you have any evidence that taking 15 of the hardest APs is normal, besides the claim that “you and your peers took every single one of them”? College Board statistics show that about 0.2% of all students manage that feat, so it’s hardly “normal”.
What undergrad and grad school did you go to? Were they “better” than UCLA? What major and what field?
Was the kid misguided to take 25 APs? Yes, and to some degree a waste of time, but he set himself this goal, however imperfect and managed to accomplish it by working hard over 4 years of high school. That’s better than the vast majority of fabricated passion projects, nepotism internships, and fake impact metrics.
People that have some life experience realize that UCLA won’t hold this kid back in the least. If grad school is his interest, he can get in anywhere from UCLA, including HYPSM or whatever people consider elite. Nobody will deny him a job interview because he went to UCLA instead of Cornell.
If anything, he did a lot in high school and managed to get into one of the top universities in the world. Understandable he is disappointed, but honestly he has no reason to be. At 18 he lacks some perspective and that’s ok, he’ll do fine.
There may have been some slight variation across the specific APs of my cohort but roughly equivalent.
My college and grad schools are well liked on this board. Without getting into specifics, I have two doctorates and am well compensated.
UCLA is a fine college though.
Did you also win the Nobel prize and Fields medal? Just so you make it slightly more believable.
No but I have met a few people who have Nobels. Not everyone on here is a troll. I am a real person.
Is that supposed to be impressive?
You sound like a dumb troll jerk dumping your own frustration in life on an 18 year old.
I have met lots of interesting people, and a few have had Nobels.
You might want to reflect why you react the way you do here. My life is great and we could have had a more productive interaction here.
AP coursework is just very basic and doing 15, 20, or 25 of them doesn’t change that it is all introductory material.
I’m exiting this thread now.
The thing is, if one goes to a good enough college like UCLA, the intro classes are much harder and cover much more than those corresponding AP classes. I personally would retake some of the core required classes even if the school let your AP classes fulfill the requirements.
This.
My daughter just finished her first year at a "good" college and the AP super jocks from public high schools who skipped the intro courses are getting TANKED in the classes they "placed" into.
Not true, APs are on par with introductory classes at even top colleges. If a 5 on AP Calculus BC is good enough for MIT and Stanford, then it’s fine for lower ranked universities as well.
In what sense is a 5 on Calc BC good enough for MIT? I bet most planning to do STEM at MIT have much more math preparation than Calc BC.
A 5 in AP Calculus BC gets credit for MIT’s 18.01 Single variable calculus.
That means a 5 in BC barely passes their elementary calculus!
No, it means that for a score of 5 in AP Calculus BC you get the same credit towards a degree as passing MITs 18.01 Single Variable Calculus.
Not barely, and not elementary calculus, whatever you think that means. If MIT is saying they are equivalent, it really doesn’t matter what your personal opinion is on this matter.
That doesn't make them equivalent. It just lets you skip 18.01 if you want to try the next class in the sequence. These classes are much harder than AP so doing so is challenging and most kids will repeat 18.01 at college rather than try to skip.
Curious about this, are you dumb?
From the MIT website:
“A score of 5 on the Calculus BC exam will grant you credit for 18.01.”
Not that it lets you skip, not that 18.01 is much harder, or that it’s recommended you repeat 18.01. You get the same credit towards an MIT degree as taking 18.01.
From the sample of kids I personally knew, not a single one would repeat 18.01, because they have better use of their time than reviewing material that’s already mastered.
You obviously don't know anyone there. Full stop. You can read a website but don't actually know anything. Please shut up. These kids need to continue math beyond 18.01 and the everybody has already taken BC Calc. Everybody. Skipping 18.01 is not going to be fun.
Oh great insider, tell us about a secret that taught in the hallowed hall of 18.01, that cannot be learned in high school.

If a school gives foreign language credit for the AP exam it won’t disqualify students from that credit just because they didn’t take 3-4 years of that foreign language in high school.
I never said it would. I agree it would give credit. I specifically said that in my second post.
I ALSO said that if a college has a list of high school courses it requires for admission--and many do--it often will not waive the requirement that APPLICANTS from US high schools take 3 or 4 years of foreign language in high school for an applicant for whom English is not their first language and who can do well on an AP test in their native language.
New York requires taking a foreign language to get a high school diploma. There are a heck of a lot of immigrants here, and they have to take foreign language in high school, just like everyone else. If the high school they attend offers their native language they can take that, but most choose not to do so. If they do take it, they can graduate. BUT they can't refuse to take any foreign language at all and still get a diploma.
The video maker lists no foreign language courses on his high school transcript.If he didn't take any foreign language, I suspect that hurt him. (He lives in California, which my googling indicates is not one of the 11 states which requires a foreign language to get a high school diploma.)
That’s simply not true: many top colleges accept a good AP score to fulfill high school foreign language requirement.
Also, is English not this guy’s first language though? If he was born here or came here as a small kid, English is still his first language (even if his parents speak Chinese at home).
I’m not sure why this hang up about his foreign language. His ECs and letters and essays may not be that great, so I’m not sure why he’s not happy with his great college outcomes!
So I checked out the short video. He got a B+ in Calc AB and a bunch of A- in other classes. He also doesn’t come across as someone with great social skills, so he should feel lucky for being waitlisted by quite a few T20 elite colleges.
Why are you so disgruntled, does that student profile hit a raw nerve?
He got a B+ in AP Calculus AB in 9th followed by an A and a 5 in AP Calculus BC in 10th grade. There weren’t “a bunch of A-“, there was one single A- in 9th grade for AP Human Geography. If you think that GPA and rigor prevented him from being admitted to Top 10 colleges you’re not in your right mind.
He got another A- in stats. There’re too many kids with 4.0 unweighted GPA. A raw score of ~60% is enough to get a 5 in Calc BC. Plenty of kids have much more advanced math in high school than Calc BC. His ECs and social skills are likely unimpressive. But his academic achievements are not spectacular either.
