Someone tell me how UCI is.
The campus?
The professors?
The networking?
The social life?

UCI and UCR are the easiest to get into right?

UCI isn't the easiest UC to get into.
At my school, the UCs are kind of lined up like this (from easiest to hardest)

UCB
UCLA
UCSD
UCD / UCI (kind of tied)
UCSB
UCSC
UCR
UCM (but that's agiven haha)

I did some research on Irvine (I'm attending this fall) and the campus is a lot smaller than other campuses, meaning you won't need a bike and getting to classes won't be a total hassle. and uhh... nice housing? and good food. My mom read somewhere that Irvine has the best food in the UC system (though that's doubtful to me haha)

Anyway, you won't get many responses in this pre-college forum =P I just found this UCI forum yesterday; it's VERY helpful

it's not a top tier school, ( UCB, UCSD, and UCLA are 1st tier )

but its DEF not ranked as low as riverside. i think davis/irvine/sb are kind of in the same area
but who cares as long as the school has a good program for your specific major

whoa whoa whoa... I think your mom was reading about UCLA, it is supposed to be rank 2 in the nation of having the best foods.

GOD I love the pasta, the salad, the cheesbuger and the grilled cheese burgers. So many varieties I almost got sick eating the food. lol

BUT, I'm not going to UCLA oh well.
