^Don't forget that the UC's don't practice affirmative action. If you get into MIT as a Hispanic, you'll have a good shot at stanford too.

Also, UCB hates OOS. Its admit rate for out of state is probably 5%, as is the proportion of admits from out of state...

So you're chance of getting in there is roughly 0.05*0.05=0.025.

does anyone know what email address the decision comes from? I want to make sure my spam filter lets it through (it's blocked other decisions)...
