They are still tough, especially the top UCs. Remember you are competing with everyone applying to the Arts and Sciences (or whatever it is called) school of that college, not just those applying to history, even if you check that major. A student I know applied to history at ucla and ucb with a 4.5 and 32 ACT, tons of ECs and didn’t get in either. Did get into UCSD, not sure what major there, didn’t go to a UC. No one should count on the two big UCs, hope, but choose others you would like as well.
