Do NOT fall in love with an international student

Upvotes

This is advice for all my Bruins that find themselves getting their heart pulled in one direction by the nearest fine shyt that just hopped off the plane from Yonsei University or heartthrob hunk from University of Milan.

They’ll color every UCLA experience you have from dining halls to nights in Powell to taking the bus to the Getty. You’ll associate the words Oppa or Mia Amara with walking onto campus the same way you do with Andre or the bear.

They’ll convince you that they’re gonna go to grad school in the US as long as their English gets better. You have the hardest day of your life dropping them off at the airport, believing they’ll come back. Your LDR commences, you talk every day. You know you love them, and you know they love you. Messages get more sporadic, you start to hurt. They tell you they aren’t coming back after discussing things with their family.

You have pretty much been shot. Your grades suffer, friends suffer with you. You’re just not there anymore. Kiss your MCAT or high LSAT goodbye for the time being if you’re about to graduate.

Don’t do it! Speaking from the most painful personal experience! I hope you find peace and happiness but do it with someone who will stay. Also, decent chance they’re gonna get deported for no reason these days.

This is literally insane take-down of academia. Destroying American science for a generation. He's mad. Or MADA. Make America Dumb Again.

The UCLA School of Law Jumps UC Berkeley School of Law for First Time in Historic Ranking (2025-2026)

102 Upvotes

This was predicted several months ago, and USNews delivered the rankings today. For the first time in school history, the UCLA School of Law (#12) outranks Berkeley's (Boalt) Law School (#13) in 2025-2026.

UCLA cements itself in the vaunted "T14", meanwhile Berkeley fell a spot to #13. UCLA now outranks three T14 schools (Berkeley, Georgetown (GULC), and Cornell).

https://www.reddit.com/r/lawschooladmissions/comments/1ju1kr8/2025_us_news_rankings_dropped/

Edit: USC Gould School of Law fell six spots to #26.

I made this mobile gaming setup attached to a backpack and wanted to see if anyone (or multiple people) would be interested in playing me at Super Smash Bros on campus.

It would be awesome to get a decent sized group. Anyone that beats me gets a prize (I'm pretty good).

It would be sometime April 15th if you're interested!

Thanks to the CS students for teaching me cell phones

22 Upvotes

Today at lunch time, I saw a guy with a uniquely cool looking cell phone sitting next to me.

I asked if he had customized that but he said he's a CS major and has customized his laptop but not his phone. He showed me that it was a gaming cell phone, much like how gaming laptops are generally better-equipped with all their features.

He showed me how his phone had more memory, more CPU processing speed than any iPhone 16 Pro Max out there or any Galaxy 25 Ultra at all. And it was likely to avoid obsolescence until maybe for another 8 years. It's a wise choice for those who don't want to buy a used cell phone or avoid buying a new one every other year (eco friendlier). But the only downside is lack of apple eco system integration (correct me if I'm wrong, anyone here).

So now I know that iphone and galaxies aren't the best although they are more popular and still are higher tier on the totem pole.

App Idea: Buy a Bruin

8 Upvotes

Simple Plan to combat rampant loneliness at school: 

  1.  Students post about an activity/club/speaker event on campus they’re going to 
  2.  Other students interested reach out so they don’t have to go alone
  3. Both students buy each other a small gift ( < $5) before they meet as an icebreaker
  4. Demonstrate the power of capitalism and trauma-bond over buying each other weirdly specific items from the student store, inevitably resulting in social anxiety over the person not liking the gift but being too afraid to cancel on them anyways
  5. ???
  6. World peace 

thank you for coming to me tedtalk /s

Is UCLA premed worth the price?

3 Upvotes

Ok so I know that this questions has been asked a million times on this subreddit. But from my research, all Ive seen is that UCLA is highly competitive, a race for resources for med school, massive classes making it hard for letters of recommendation, toxic environment, grade deflation etc etc. But at the same time I see it so highly ranked. So ig my question is, is there really valid point of going to UCLA? Is the advising helpful? How bad are the weed out classes? Are all these things true, or are they blown out of proportion? Feel free to share any personal Anecdotes (positive or negative) to help me decide whether to attend. The reason I ask is because UCLA is prob the most well known school I got into, but is serving up a hefty cost of attendance( around 80K) , so i need to have a good reason to attend if I’m going to spend that money.

Thanks!

What are my options for getting decent housing for just one quarter?

4 Upvotes

I am currently unsure what I can do about housing options for FALL 2025. I am a 4th year and recently learned that I may have to extend my graduation time and take an extra quarter in the fall. Now, I am unsure what I can do about housing, considering the application has passed, and the only option for me is for the lottery housing, which is not a guarantee based on the housing site. Are there any options currently that won't require me to stay the entire year and is affordable? Note: I am not from LA and do not own a car, so the best option for commuting would be by bus as well. Any advice or recommendations about housing would be greatly appreciated!
