Ranks below are Category 3B (3BG) closing ranks only — the rank at which the last seat in that category went. They are not comparable with General Merit figures, and a category rank is not the same number as your overall KCET rank. How we verify data.

New to these codes? What 3BG category means. “Most competitive” is the tightest closing rank for that branch in this category and the college it belongs to; “widest” is the loosest. Final round per seat, so an earlier round’s tighter rank never overstates how hard a seat is to get. Branches offered by fewer than three colleges are left out rather than shown as a range of one.
