Just noticed that the 2019 Stats for frosh are posted at UCLA admissions

Here are the effects of UCLA reducing the acceptance rate from 14% to 12% in 2019.

Here are the increased (+) /decreased (-) stats for 2019 vis-a-vis 2018’s:

Here are the respective links for the 2019 and 2018 classes:

Some notes:

– A 3.92 uwgpa descended to the 38th percentile in 2018. In 2019, a 3.94 descended to the 39th percentile.

– The gpa numbers, both uw and w, have increased across the board when they haven’t run against a cap.

– The native CA students increased their SAT points by an admirable 20 points at the 25th percentile.

– However, the board scores for the student body entering as a whole remained exactly the same because the University reduced the freshman class from 6,240 to 5,920, and at the same time increased CA-resident students from 4,365 to 4,433. This reduced non-resident presence negated the increases in SAT points by CA students because they have lower scores.

I’ll be adding to this thread when I get a chance. One metric to note for SAT will be the number of students who score 700 or > on their Math and EBRW on UCLA’s published CDS. For 2018 these were 58% and 51%, respectively. Though the SAT numbers have remained virtually the same per this mapping, these two measures will show if the median has actually increased or decreased.

Thanks for posting. I have been wondering when they would update that page.

@Gumbymom . . . sorry, I was in a rush and wasn’t able to edit. If you wouldn’t mind, could you make the following edits to my third array :

1.) In Row 1, Column 6, the +0.02 s/b +0.04

2.) In Row 2, Column 1, the +1 s/b -1

Also, in my second link right below that array s/b “Prof18.htm” not “Prof19.htm” in the last part of the link.

And in my third note, could you add “at the 25th Percentile” regarding increasing their SATs by 20 points.

Thank you very much.

@firmament2x: Hopefully I got the changes right.

@gumbymom . . . it looks good. I’ll just link the 2019 stats as a comparison:
