Well the biggest and most convincing argument against the validity of this astrology is that Berkeley may be uploading decision in batches (it is somewhat suspicious that the proportion reaches almost exactly 1/3 as the sample size grows). While Berkeley’s actual acceptance rate is much lower than 1/3, we have to account for sampling bias, as well as response bias ie, the sample of applicants who are on college confidential most likely have more competitive applications than the population of applicants applying to Berkeley + People who receive “not authorized” would be less likely to report their findings. This may be accurate, but it also very much may not be, i’m personally hoping for the latter since Berkeley is my dream school but we’ll have to wait until march 30th to know for sure.
