The Lowdown on Being Pre-Med at UCLA?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Los Angeles

Hey everyone,
I was recently admitted to UCLA’s Class of 2020 with an MIMG major. I’d like to know exactly what it’s like being pre-med at UCLA; for example, just how competitive are the students? Is it easy to talk to your professors and get to know them? Is it difficult to get a volunteer position at Ronald Reagan Medical Center? What are the class sizes of some of the bigger GE courses? Is it difficult to register for the classes that you need?

Thank you for helping me out! And congrats to all other admitted students!

I volunteered at UCLA Ronald Reagan as a high schooler, and honestly it’s pretty easy to get a position mainly because there’s always a need

Students are very competitive. To get an “A” is not an easy task, especially in the Chem classes (even for a Regents scholar such as my daughter)!
