[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be careful what you wish for. The California admissions system has resulted in increased Asian admissions. Not criticizing Asians, it's a fact that has occurred after picking based on scores.[/quote] So what?[/quote] UC Berkeley and UCLA DO NOT select based on score. They (unlike other UCs) use holistic review for admission process including many factors such as SES, first generation, challenges, single parent, leadership potential, activities, volunteering, personal essays, etc. as well as grades and test scores They are just prohibited from using race as one of those dozen or so factors. In fact, They de-emphasize SAT scores in order to increase "diversity". That is why their average SAT score is around 2140 even with many Asians. It is not uncommon for Asians to be rejected by UC Berkeley with 2300 or higher SAT scores.[/quote]
