The College Board Is Misleading You About The SAT... UCLA Doesn't Use It

Contrary to the email the College Board just sent out, the SAT will NOT help you with UCLA or any UC. UCLA, Berkeley, UCSD, UCSB - all of them are TEST BLIND. And have been for years. In this video, I explain why the SAT is no longer considered at any UC school, what changed, and what it actually means for your college strategy. I also break down why there’s still so much confusion, and what students should focus on instead if UCLA or Berkeley (or ANY UC or Cal State) is their goal. In my experience working with students every year, strong applicants are not spending their time retaking the SAT over and over - they’re focusing on the parts of the application that actually matter. In the next video, I’ll explain the one set of standardized tests that does matter for UC admissions - and how it can help you stand out. ⸻ Work with me: https://prestigeadmissions.com ___________ #ucla #ucberkeley #ucsb #ucsd #uci #ucdavis #ucsc #ucr #calpoly #testblind #sdsu #collegeadmissions #sat #testoptional #universityofcalifornia #collegeapps #highschoolstudents #collegeadvice #prestigeadmissions #collegeboard #act #apexams
