That's wild. At UCSD no less where if you're white, indian or asian, you better have a 4.0+, honors and AP classes plus extracurriculars.

Diversity is our strength.

it's literally an internal study done by UCSD.

The test was given to their remedial students and they were told they didn't have to put their name nor would their identities be attached to the test. sure some could just fake it, but come on, if someone asked you 7 + 2 = ? + 6, you really would put some wrong answer on purpose?

Public Counsel and co-counsel brought this lawsuit on behalf of students and community organizations—Chinese for Affirmative Action, College Access Plan, College Seekers, Community Coalition, Dolores Huerta Foundation, and Little Manila Rising—challenging the University of California’s use of the SAT and ACT as discriminatory on the bases of race, wealth, and disability. In August 2020, Plaintiffs obtained a preliminary injunction requiring the University to immediately stop using the tests for undergraduate admissions and scholarship determinations. Plaintiffs then defeated the University’s attempts to prevent the injunction from taking effect. In the admissions cycle following the injunction, UC saw record gains in numbers of Black and Latinx students applying to and gaining admission to its campus.

they changed admissions policy, forget how it worked but basically admitted way more retards from lower level HS

UCSD Admission Policy Changes (2019-2024)

1. Test-Blind Policy (Biggest Change)

Implemented: Fall 2022 admissions (permanent UC system policy)

What changed: SAT/ACT scores are completely banned from consideration—not even optional

Impact on admitted student profile:

Class of 2021: 86% submitted SATs, average was 1410

Class of 2024: 0% submitted SATs (not collected)

Result: UCSD lost its primary quantitative filter for academic preparedness. Without standardized tests, admissions rely entirely on GPA, essays, and extracurriculars.

2. "Holistic Review" Expansion (2020-2022)

What changed: UCSD dramatically increased weight on:

Personal Insight Questions (PIQs): 4 essays now count as much as GPA in some cases

Adversity score: Explicit consideration of family income, neighborhood poverty, school resources

First-generation preference: +20% admission rate boost

Impact: Students from low-performing high schools with strong personal narratives now outcompete those from high-performing schools with similar stats.

3. GPA Inflation & Grade Context

What changed: UCSD now uses "weighted GPA context":

The UC system automatically calculates weighted GPA for up to 8 AP/IB courses (adds 1 point each)

No longer distinguishes between manually calculated high school GPAs—so a 4.0 unweighted GPA and 4.6 weighted GPA may be treated similarly if your school offers fewer AP courses

Impact: Students from schools that don't offer AP courses have their weighted GPA weighted similarly to students from schools with many AP courses.

4. Expansion Policy (Most Controversial)

2021 UC Regents vote: Expand California resident enrollment by 6,230 students by 2024-25, while reducing out-of-state and international student spots

UCSD specific expansion: Added 2,500 in-state students in 2022-23 (11% increase)

Result: To maintain expansion pace, admission standards had to drop.

A large percentage of humanity is too dumb to get anything out of math education. I remember even in my UMC white suburban HS there were tons of kids who were only capable of learning robotic procedures for solving algebra problems but didn't have the raw intellectual horsepower to develop a conceptual understanding of what was going on. Now imagine the mud people attending SPS high schools where the mean IQ is much lower. These kids never had a chance regardless of the teacher. Their brains didn't evolve for the complexity of modern life, and now they are being admitted to UCs instead of doing manual labor.
