I agree with JustOneDad. For example, some people are being closed out of impacted majors at some University of California campuses – too much demand, not enough spaces. I think the best policy is to excel in one (or more) areas as much as possible, and be sincere and passionate about those interests during your application process. If you happened to be an outstanding physics candidate, and that is truly your passion, then let that passion shine in your applications.
