<p>Has UCLA and Cal ever changed from their 25 and 21 ranks?<br>
I eagerly anticipate the day we might somehow surpass Cal, but that doesn't seem likely. I'm just hoping we won't drop, because that seems to be the most probable path.</p>
<p>I don't know if we'll drop. We were 26 a few years back.</p>

<p>Flopsy, I'm curious as to what Berkeley's 1991 rank was.</p>

<p>lol riverside is higher than santa cruz...
so the "second-worst UC" torch has been passed on</p>
<p>What exactly happened to the UC in 1991-1992?<br>
6 ranks down for LA and 3 ranks down for Berk. </p>
<p>And lol @ Moose.</p>
<p>^^USNews tweaked the formulas to advantage the private colleges. Cal, UCLA, Mich & UVa were even higher in the first ranking, btw. </p>
<p>(Can't sell many magazines to the northeast blue-bloods if publics take the top spots.)</p>
<p>USC in the ghetto? Well, I guess when it was found in 1880 they didn't have a time machine to see what the location will look like in 2008. Does that mean one should choose NYU over Columbia because Columbia is located in the Harlem?</p>
<p>You mean someone just FOUND it in 1880, waiting to be inhabited??!! Incredible.</p>
<p>Did you expect to see glorification of USC on a UCLA forum? Just curious as to what drives your anger and your apparently feeling offended.</p>
<p>I have two words for you: STATE SCHOOL.</p>
<p>I have 10 words for you:</p>
<p>Stop reinforcing the stereotypes of Trojans being ignorant elitist pricks. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>That was some of the most beautiful prose I have ever had the pleasure to read, Pink. ;)</p>
<p>Please explain "State School."</p>
<p>As if rankings actually mean anything in the real world :rolleyes:
How ****ing stupid to get caught up in something so irrelevant :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Ditto to We3AreGenius.
It's what you do with yourself not what school you go to. Not all students who attend those "top ranked schools" are successful and those who attend "state schools" or those schools not highly ranked are successful.</p>
<p>But higher ranked schools give you more opportunities to be successful. Some careers pretty much require one to attend to a top-ranked school, such as consulting and i-banking...etc</p>
<p>haha there's no i-banking anymore</p>
<p>Well obviously there isn't, but there will still be a need for people to be doing M&A stuff. MS and GS are still there, although they are now bank-holding companies.</p>
