I learned something new today

<p>I assume, by that, you mean I am ■■■■■■■■ for UCD. Please tell me how exposing a popular college guide’s clumsy research makes me a ■■■■■. I haven’t even said one positive word about UCD in this whole thread. Further, I am not saying (in case anyone here got that impression) that UC-Riverside is a bad or even a mediocre school. USNWR ranks it among the 100 universities in the nation and it is a major research university and an engine of growth for Riverside County and the Inland Empire. I apologize if I gave anyone here (esp. UCR students and alumni) that impression. My issue is with the Princeton Review. It makes millions selling these guides to young college applicants so the least it could do is to do sufficient research and present accurate information. UC-Riverside is selective even for undergrad (since it accepts only the top 12.5% or so of high school seniors). But to say that it is more selective than Berkeley or UCLA is just indefensible. I am proud as hell to be attending UCD’s school of law this fall but I would still never argue that it is as selective as the law schools at Stanford, Berkeley and UCLA. There is a huge difference between being proud and being just delusional.</p>
