@jimmyeatworld you are right, as a californian, I think most people believe Cal is just another school which is different from out of staters. Of course Its harder to get into if you are from out of state ( I think?) and you have to pay a lot more. But normally if you are top 5% in the class and have a SAT of 2200+ you will pretty much get in. AT least that’s the case at my school. I’ve heard of people with top 20 and 1700 SATs getting in.
