<p>ThisCouldBeHeaven is right.
Don’t waste your time applying to UCMerced.
It’s basically a lot of people’s safety school, considering it has like a 70% acceptance rate.
It’s one of those schools that many SoCal kids laugh at.
You wouldn’t really enjoy it much. It’s known for having all of those rejected kids that just end up smoking pot all day.
Sorry if I offended any Merced students, but that’s what high schoolers know the school as.</p>
