| No ShoeFactory, UCI needs to improve their API and ELC acceptance rates to rise in ranking. It is simply a fact. It is one of the ranking criteria.

The amount of motivation it takes to succeed in that situation is 100 times what it takes for a student with wealth or even a student from the middle class. |
