Also, as anyone who has applied to UCs knows, Berkeley offers only one choice of major at application time, whereas UCLA and all other UCs offer multiple choices. So there is a perceived risk in applying to Berkeley.

Actually, anyone who “knows” Cal admissions, knows that it just not true. The vast majority of students are admitted to the College of Letters and Science and intended major is NOT an admissions factor. (The school of Engineering does require you to pick a major, however.)
