@lkg4answers, I’m pretty certain UCLA admits by major and CS is probably the most competitive one to get in to. EECS at Cal has a single-digit admit rate these days, for comparison, making it as tough to get in to as Ivies/equivalents.
In any case, we still don’t know what majors these 2 students applied to. I can see some school valuing being national-level president more than other schools do.
