University of California-Riverside Top Questions

Describe how your school looks to someone who's never seen it.

Michael

A great research University to get an education at.

shamim

It is a small school with very little resources and advisors that are discouraging. The class sizes are small and one can attend office hours for extra help; although for the most part the TA's are incompetent and the teachers undecipherable. The atmosphere is calm and there are very little social activities within or outside of the school. It is claustrophobic for anyone who maybe liberal with independent mind sets, and there is absolutely no room for intellictual growth ( it's all by the book).
