[quote=Anonymous]The top UCs do admit a fair number of very unqualified kids chasing the rankings to earn political points within the state and social mobility points. These kids do get screwed. They get shuffled into easy, unemployable majors. They are encouraged to take some classes on line in a community college and transfer the credits over. They often lose scholarships or aid tied to maintaining a mid to high GPA and then need to take loans. They take 7 years to graduate. They drop out. But hey, UCSD rose in the rankings because of this game. This makes the school more popular with top students who will glom together anyway. It doesn’t really hurt the top kids who get in at all.
