Rating UCSD

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - San Diego
1

<p>There’s this book called the College ******* that serves as a basic guidebook to a lot of colleges/universities in the US (one of them being UCSD of course), and I figured I’d share some of the info with you guys. You don’t have to agree with it, but I wouldn’t advise you to disregard some of the ratings they put either, 'cuz most of the quotes that are in this book come straight from the students–no BS. </p>

<p>There’s 12 categories they go into depth about, and they grade each category A, B, C, D or F. Think of it as a report card.</p>

<p>That word up there is supposed to be P.r.o.w.l.e.r by the way d:</p>

3

<p>why was p.rowler blocked out?</p>

4

<p>I really don't know? :&lt;/p>

5

<p>Oh I bought the UCSD College p r o w l e r book just recently. We get good grades across the board but UCLA squashes us. Damn it.</p>

6

<p>It doesn't matter if they beat us or anything. We're going to UCSD. Let's just make the best of it and be happy X}</p>

7

<p>UCSD facilities are actually really good...new buildings coming up all the time, etc. I'd give it an A-, actually. Computers, B+, dining should drop down to maybe a b-...</p>

8

<p>Karthikkito, since you're probably going to UCSD already, do have any word about the Muir dorms and their being rennovated over the summer? I'm excited that they may no longer be the 'jail cells' anymore.</p>

9

<p>No clue about the muir dorms being renovated. Maybe 'refreshed'...would be a better term. Blake hall (revelle) got new carpeting, paint, sofas, tables, desks, etc. Maybe something similar is in store, but I haven't heard anything.</p>

<p>:)</p>

10

<p>Hell, new paint is good enough for me; anything but that dull, darkening gray/white hue is good.</p>

11

<p>mind putting up grades for other schools too? :)</p>

12

<p>damn, i wish i could choose which revelle hall i want cus then i would totally choose blake. too bad housing is random</p>

13

<p>Well...I don't have the one for UCLA, unfortunately. OCaptain might have it? :)</p>

<p>I'll do one for SDSU though, seeing how most of us plan to visit it for parties and what-not anyway.</p>

16

<p>A for girls........................................... :(</p>

17

<p>Ratings are always subjective. Don't draw conclusions until you attend college there yourself, guys.</p>
