How to get into UCLA and UC Berkeley (vs. other UCs)

Are you wondering what makes the difference between a student accepted to UCLA and UC Berkeley, and a student who is denied at those colleges but admitted to other selective UCs like UCSD, UCSB, UCI, and UC Davis?

Are you trying to understand WHY you didn't get into UCLA or UC Berkeley, but were accepted at other UCs?

In this video, I compare student profiles of successful applicants to UCLA and UC Berkeley vs students who did not get into those colleges, but were admitted to other UCs.
