UC System Ranking

<p>What's the ranking of UC Schools? which one is first and which one is last one?</p>

<p>IMO</p>

<p>Berkeley
UCLA
Santa Barbra
Davis
Santa Cruz</p>

<p>i don't even know what the others are.</p>

<p>Overall it's:
Berkeley
Los Angeles
San Diego
Irvine
Santa Barbara/Davis
Santa Cruz
Riverside
Merced</p>

<p>Engineering (I may be wrong because there's no general ranking for engineering, only rankings for specific areas of engineering, this is just my best idea):
Berkeley
San Diego
Los Angeles
Irvine
Santa Barbara
Davis
Santa Cruz/Riverside
Merced</p>

<p>chemical engineering in santa barbara is ranked really high. it's higher than UCLA which was a surprise for me. i think it's ranked sixteenth compared to UCLA which is ranked 26th i think, not sure.
in my opinion
Berkley
UCLA
UCSB
UCSD
UCI
UCD/UCSC</p>

<p>Berkeley
UCLA*
UCSD*
UCSB
UCD
UCI
UCSC
UCR
UCM</p>

<p>*Very close, pretty much tied imo.</p>

<p>IMO for engineering its
Berkeley
UCLA/UCSD
Davis (way more programs then UCSB and generally higher ranked)
UCSB/UCI (SB has too few programs imo)
Riverside
Santa Cruz/Merced (1 half-baked program each?)</p>

<p>However, it really depends on your major. For example, if I was a ChemE I would go to UCSB over every school except Berkeley.</p>

<p>If you want to add Cal Poly SLO in, I would put it between UCLA/SD and Davis.</p>

<p>Here are the actual rankings for undergraduate engineering :)</p>

<p>wow...somone like US NEW a little too much</p>

<p>^The OP specifically asked about rankings, not opinions. :p</p>

<p>Yea, which is why only one of your posts was really good, the rest were just in general rankings</p>
