What's up, everyone? I'm hoping to apply to UC Berkeley, but I'm unsure about their SAT requirements. Is there a specific score range I should be aiming for to have a better chance at getting admitted?
Hello! For the 2024-2025 application cycle, the University of California (UC) system, including UC Berkeley, is test-blind. This means that they do not consider SAT or ACT scores at all in their admissions process. You won't need to worry about submitting SAT scores for your application, as they will not be factored into their decisions.
Instead, UC Berkeley will focus on other aspects of your application, such as your grades, coursework, extracurricular activities, essays, and leadership experiences. Make sure to emphasize your strengths in these areas to improve your chances of admission. Good luck!
