sstory, that is why i said it was a horrible attempt and apologized for it. i assumed that it was implied that by noting that “it is ironic for UCLA to be an hour away yet be more competitive” as

a) UCLA is too competitive when it should be the same as a school an hour away
b) UCLA’s program is equivalent to UCI’s

obviously, both comments are not true. as for how is it bashing UCLA? if someone had actually have believed that statement, they would come out with the belief that UCLA is overrated when in actuality…it isnt; it is alot better. i made the comment because of my past encounters with people on this board who contended that UCLA is overrated (which is a clear bash on the prestige) and as a result of me defending UCLA, i received alot of flack.

but again, my basis of the attempt was solely on implications that i assumed people who have gotten. obviously people didnt which is why i apologized.
