Assuming there isn't some form of self-selection going on. Asian students may be favouring Berkeley and comprise a relatively larger proportion of the applicant pool there when compared to Harvard/Princeton. In other words, your conclusion assumes that relative make-up of the applicant pool is the same everywhere and it very well may not be.
- mifl 15y agoAsians comprise a larger percentage of the applicant pool of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Caltech, and MIT. It is true that many Asian Americans from California apply to Berkeley, but that doesn't take into consideration the rest of them, hoards from China, Japan, and South Korea.
