You stated:
I agree that OP should attend whatever school at which he/she feels most comfortable, but you’re mistaken if you believe that the stats of matriculants between the two are similar. You should receive a pass, though, because I’m guessing that you’re not from CA and don’t know much about either university.
With respect to med-school placement, UCLA had close to 1,000 applicants to med school in 2018-19 – thank you. . . but since it is a public university with at most 30% non-CA residents, this restricts the med-school choices of its students (as opposed to, say, Pomona which draws students from all over the country 
). CA’s SOMs are clearly the most competitive state to gain entry by far, even if it has the most seats of any state.
This is why the excellent info you gave us in another thread about UCLA and Cal conversely really reflects how well they’ve both done in placing students into SOMs because they and all the rest of the UCs are driving the competition for seats within the state. They’re both to be lauded for putting forth prospective MDs, but at the same time they’re both being cursed as being part of the problem.
With respect to the stats reference, I went through the exercise of trying to standardize UCLA’s stats to private colleges’ which manifests superscoring in the common app. Of course, it wouldn’t matter if Harvard and some of the other truly elites would superscore or not, because Harvard particularly has the most naturally intelligent students on the planet, so they don’t have to scramble to take, retake and retake.
Anyway, my exercise for your consumption, re, UCLA stats which should be pretty close to the actuals (some of the stats are from CDS and the UCLA Admissions site by year)….
Format: uwgpa/fully wgpa/25th Percentile SAT/75th/50th
UCLA Median Stats, 2017-18, Unsuperscored: 3.91/4.39/1,240/1,490/1,370
UCLA Median Stats, 2018-19, Unsuperscored: 3.95/4.42/1,280/1,510/1,390
*Note: UCLA reports 132%, the sum of the two college board tests which enrolled freshmen reported, which implies that the scores at the 25th and 75th percentiles are understated. Additionally, the University does not superscore, which drives the two percentiles down by an average of 40 points on the SAT.
UCLA Median Stats, 2017-18, Superscored: 3.91/4.39/1,290/1,510/1,400
UCLA Median Stats, 2018-19, Superscored: 3.95/4.42/1,330/1,530/1,430
Format: uwgpa/fully wgpa/SAT
UCLA Mean Stats, 2017-18, Unsuperscored: 3.87/4.35/1,340
UCLA Mean Stats, 2018-19, Unsuperscored: 3.89/4.39/1,370
UCLA Mean Stats, 2017-18, Superscored: 3.87/4.35/1,380
UCLA Mean Stats, 2018-19, Superscored: 3.89/4.39/1,410
SCU is a tough university to gain entry also, but not as tough as UCLA. All Californians know this.
