<p>The scatterplots at the end are interesting – particularly in how “fuzzy” the dividing line between admits and rejects is at various schools. “Fuzzier” dividing lines may mean greater consideration of factors other than grades and test scores. For many of the state universities, “fuzzier” dividing lines are likely due to varying selectivity of different majors or divisions within the school (e.g. Cal Poly SLO, UC Irvine). Interestingly, UCLA’s “fuzz” zone is much smaller than that of Berkeley, UCI, UCSB, UCSD, or USC.</p>
