I am currently a senior applying to many of the UC’s. I also have a twin brother and we’ve done everything together from high school classes to extracurricular activities. Would my chances of getting to a UC (e.g. Irvine, Davis, Santa Barbara) decrease if our topics are the same, but from a different approach?
It’s hard to say. There are many readers for each school so it would depend if you both end up with the same reader for the essays.
thank you!
