For sure, berkeley is the most hollistic out of all the UCS
data science didnât have 200 admits last year 
cs maybe
2000 is total I believe across all years.
ya I was referring to cs
Last year essentially all CCDSS admits from our school were for DS, so I do think they admit a LOT more than CS does.
No thatâs the number that declared the DS major last year
At least 6 people from my school got into Berkeley for that major. No chance its that low bruh

100%, berkeley is the uc that cares the most about who you are as a person. def the most similar to ivy admissions vs other ucs that are super stat based.

Does that mean if i apply to public health the id astrology may be incorrect?
403 forbidden, i have an id
403 forbidden is not a sign anymore, its been patched. everyone has that
I forget everything after AP stats examđ
UCB admits students based on College not Major right? If I listed an intended major, as long as itâs in L&S I should technically always be able to switch to another major within that college right?
yes
My cousin is at Berkeley, she said if itâs for one of the impacted majors you canât just switch after 2023 admit year they made a new comprehensive review where you have to apply to declare the impacted major unless you were accepted for that impacted major. You only have 1 chance to apply if you are rejected you have to pick something else. This is really important because they just started seeing data from that admit year, so no one knows how easy or hard it is to switch just yet. Just FYI, you can look at the website for current impacted majors but it changes every year.

Berkeley is the only UC that looks at majors in letters and science

The following majors have been removed from the L&S High-Demand Major list.
If you were admitted in Fall 2023 and selected any of the following majors on your Admissions application*, you still have a guaranteed spot in that major (subject to completing prerequites, meeting academic standards, and filing a declaration form).
