Which 10 public high schools in California supplied the highest number
of students into the entire UC system, in the last 2 years? Looking
for a simple histogram such as :
2004: SchoolA(45), SchoolB(43),SchoolC(39),...
2003: SchoolM(50), SchoolQ(48), SchoolA(36)..
Please note : NoT looking for school district names alone and also no
private schools |

Would you be interested in the top 25 public schools in terms of
percentage of students admitted to the UC system (1999)?

Not really. The data from 1999 is likely to be too old my needs. My
concern with percentages is that they will skew the data unless you
are also able to share the school student population in which case we
can attempt to normalize.
Thanks for asking

Well, the student population figures are included. As for the 1999
issue, I understand your concern about it being a bit old, but I
suspect that the list for 2004 would not be radically different.
Indeed, looking at the names of the schools, I can tell you from
personal experience that we're talking about high schools that have
been sending many kids to UC for decades. These things don't change
overnight.
Again, if you're interested, let me know.

In your proposal, will you provide actual confimed admissions into UC
systems or will it be more like number of eligible students and/or
number of students who applied and were given admission?
I am told that all admission informaion is self-reported by the
students and tends not be as comprehensive;
My reservation about the 1999 data remains, especially as my students
will not be graduating for a few years.

The statistic is the number (and percentage) of graduating seniors
admitted to a UC campus. This is not self-reported data. It is
confirmed data from an official University of California source.
