<p>Well, at my school, half the senior class got into SB, and only a select few of those same students got into Davis.</p>
<p>Anecdotal evidence doesn't count.</p>
<p>Um, okay. Way to be completely anal. Did I suggest that I was offering anything other than anecdotal evidence? I was merely offering my two cents. Sheesh. Take a tranquilizer.</p>
<p>Heh, Im just joking around, dont take anything I say too seriously :)</p>
<p>I think what rc251 was trying to say is that a portion of the students at one particular California high school is too small of a sample pool to support the statement that UC Davis is more selective than UC Santa Barbara.</p>
<p>Duh. But the whole point of a forum is to talk about yourself, your experiences... ANECDOTES. If you just wanted statistics, you could check on Princeton Review. That's not the point.</p>
<p>Merced, the only one without sports.</p>
<p>"Wrong. Davis had an acceptance rate of 68% for Fall 2006 compared to 53% for UCSB. Davis hasn't released it's stats of acceptance but I'm betting it's lower because it was lower last year when UCSB had the same acceptance rate and Davis had a lower one."</p>
<p>Lots of people attend tractor pulls, but very few attend the symphony.</p>
<p>....tractors?..farm??...Davis? AH ha! I see the connection...at last you make sense.</p>
<p>You have poor reasoning blinkblink ;) I knew someone would make that incorrect connection. That is why I used the tractor analogy. I guess you forgot about the Mondavi Center babe.</p>
<p>I honestly don't even know what's going on.</p>
<p><3</p>
<p>He (or she?) means that Davis accepts more kids because most of them opt to go there and they have a higher yield. The people who apply there really want to go there (the "symphony"). I think.</p>
<p>Err...yeah I guess...</p>
<p>the whole college town thing seems quaint, but it's just too far for me.</p>
