<p>It’s because UCLA is not as prestigious as everyone on here makes it out to be. Like I been saying forever now, Berkeley and UCSD are now the top two UCs. UCLA has taken a back seat. That does not mean UCLA is now the new UCR, no. It just means that UCLA has remained stagnate in its progress. Where as, UCSD (and to a greater extent USC) has been making great strides in such a short time frame. So much so that it is on the verge of surpassing UCLA in everything. Now, to be fair, UCLA does offer students a more well-rounded educational experience, because of their D1 sport teams.</p>
