Santa Clara vs UCLA

My apologies for not being clearer! I wasn’t referring to undergraduate admissions stats. Since OP expressed an interest in pre-med, my post referred to the similarity between the outcomes of SCU & UCLA students who ended up applying/matriculating to med schools (so college GPAs and MCAT scores). And, like I said, there are all sorts of ways to interpret that data.

FWIW (probably not much!), during my 30+ years working in post-secondary education (inc. admin/admissions/transfer articulation agreements - even teaching), I somehow made it to 40+ private and public colleges in CA (actually my favorite part of the job). Admittedly, it’s been about 7-8 years since I last visited SCU, but (and I’m hoping for extra points here) after I retired just a couple of years ago a former colleague got me seats in the student section for a UCLA basketball game!
