Instead of an anonymous internet board, just look at the rankings



Rankings haven’t been to college, anonymous people on message boards have been to college. It’s a perfectly legitimate question to ask. Some arbitrary rankings aren’t going to tell the OP how actual students have enjoyed (or hated) their undergraduate education. Nor will they answer whether a University is a “party school” or not.



Regardless, the OP did not ask about “undergraduate education”



The OP’s original questions was “How good are the UC schools academically?”. Okay, so we know OP’s asking about education. Based on OP’s previous posts, we know OP is going to be an undergraduate. Therefore, I’m going to assume the OP isn’t asking how the UCs’ PhD programs stack up. I could be wrong, though.

Given that there is absolutely no way to measure “undergraduate education”



Maybe by, I don’t know, asking people who have gone to the UCs how they’ve felt about their undergraduate education?
