<p>Wh does everyone make it seem like Berkeley is extremely difficult to get accepted to? With an acceptance rate of 22% and an ACT scale of 27-32 why is it always chanced so high?</p>
<p>Who is “everyone”? I don’t recall the idea that Berkeley is “extremely difficult” to get into ever espoused on here.</p>
<p>Most users of this website think that Berkeley is one of the most difficult schools to get accepted to</p>
<p>Compared to all the non-elite colleges out there, sure. Compared to the Ivy Leagues? No.</p>
<p>I think your stats are outdated. I think the most recent one was 21% and 29-34.</p>
