ABC News/Nightline produced this graph from data gathered by the Center for Equal Opportunity for its program airing October 31, 1996. It represents the 25th to 75th percentile scores on the math and verbal SAT combined for students who were admitted and enrolled at Berkeley by race and ethnicity.

As this graph clearly illustrates, Berkeley opperates a two-tiered system where it applies dramatically different admissions crietria to applicants based on race. This is part of an ongoing project at CEO to gather similar data from universities around the United States.

All the data used by CEO was provided by the University of California at Berkeley under that state's freedom of information law. This version of our report contains no charts. To obtain the full version please contact CEO.
