<p>i always laugh when people say that UCLA is for berkeley rejects/second choice considering that most UCLA students also get into berkeley. Even the differences in their endowment is pretty negligible considering that UCB was open like 50 years before UCLA. And, on average, SAT scores between LA and berkeley only differed by like 20 points (in berkeley’s favor) average act score between LA and SD differs by 1 point (in berkeley’s favor) and gpa between the two schools was 4.15 and 4.16 (in LAs favor) the two schools are in most areas pretty similar ; )</p>
