<p>Hm, I’m not so sure about that one. Berkeley gets twice the number of applicants as Stanford, so it’s likely that it has a wider range of applicants than Stanford. But yes, that’s the “purpose” of the SAT – to standardize a scale for comparing applicants. (UC probably doesn’t have much faith in this, which is why they demanded a change in the SAT – still isn’t entirely effective, imo.)</p>
