<p>MYOS1634 … stop badmouthing UCLA.</p>
<p>I know your 6,000+ posts has given you some sort of self-importance, but lay off the spiel that has made the rounds on this board, and try to think critically for yourself and try to stay on topic. </p>
<p>You stated in another thread, sounding like mom2collegekids, and said, that a UCLA student didn’t gain acceptance to med school because he couldn’t obtain letters of recommendation – which is false, which was shot down when it was told he gained acceptance to UCSD’s and Dartmouth’s med schools. Again, UCLA med’s admissions undoutbtedly thought the CSULB student was a better candidate.</p>
<p>Here, you’re going off into deep tangents, to badmouth UCLA. </p>
<p>The reason why UCLA isn’t a target for the “West Coast elite’s children” is because it has far too high standards to allow high percentages from any school just because it educates the elite.</p>
<p>You mention med school, law school, but the OP has no desire to attend these grad programs and effectively stated such previously by their total non-inclusion.</p>
<p>You mention with authority that Wall Street would possibly target Barnard grads but not target UCLA’s. This may be somewhat true, but with what authority do you speak?</p>
<p>There are two alumni who made a 13-15 most influential list in business, who are big on Wall Street who graduated graduated from UCLA, one an MBA, and the other with a bac and MBA degree from the University.</p>
<p>You sound more and more like so many others on this board, and just spew forth information that you’ve read. </p>
