This school seems to try too hard to make itself look good. i'm not saying it's a bad school, but it definitely seems like it gets more credit than it deserves. this is the one school, by far, where students like to reinforce the "prestige" of it and how it's so well-respected, although i'd say it can't really compare to the ivies or top LAC's. it's too large to get much personal attention at. it's definitely overrated, to be honest. you can tell how desperately the people who posted positive comments try to make it sound like it's the best school in the world. anyone with half a brain knows that those who rely heavily on prestige are insecure and want to play on the ignorance of employers. this is why I don't respect the school as much as I may, some people there are just too snooty and close-minded. if anything, the "mid-tiered" uc's may be a better choice, because at least the people there are modest and study due to interest instead of working just for top grades so they can appear to be smart. now like i said, it's not a poor school by any means, i've actually met great people who went there, but it's some of those arrogant, insecure people from there that need to get a reality check. if your school's so well-respected, then how come many employers in the LA metro area typically pick grads from csu's like csulb, csuf, and cal poly pomona over grads from ucla? perhaps because those schools actually focus on useful stuff rather than impractical theory? and I'm sure westwood gets old after a while too. i don't go to ucla myself, but to st mary's, which is right around the corner from it. for your own good, don't go to college for the prestige.
