Also make sure you look at the statewide eligibility index. If you have a lot of A-G courses (particularly math/foreign language in 7th/8th grade) and 4 APs in 10th/11th grade then it’s possible to be statewide eligible even with a much lower class rank than 9% (eg it worked for my S23 who was about 25% class rank - 3.7UW/4.0W, he ended up at UCSC off the waitlist). It doesn’t count for much (it isn’t one of the UC evaluation criteria used by campuses), but would guarantee admission to UC Merced.
