Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Most Abused :This couch is to your body as music is to your ears, receiving a C = 9. Depending on who you know, the A = 2.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Most Deceiving - Bad : This pair looks comfy C = 5, but the cushions are unexpectedly firm. The A = 9.8 because every student needs some help at times.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Homiest : This C = 7 couch has soft cushions and a homey design that says, "You're home." Too bad, it's A = 0.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Noisiest : It's no wonder that this pair of couches has C = 2, since you should be studying, not relaxing. The A = 7 since all are welcome, but not as popular.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Longest : This behind-the-scenes, retro-looking couch has been upholstered twice, according to stage manager, Gene Hale. A=0, C=6

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Smallest : This pint-sized couch receives C = 4 for a soft seat and A = 2 for being a certain age limit. If this were a regular-sized sofa, just double the scores.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Classiest : Students are always welcome to sit on this C = 7 couch. "It's like a psychologist's couch," said Rachel Berry, ASCC marketing director, giving it A = 10.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Most Plain : This average C = 4 couch is nothing special and is tucked away, giving it A = 0.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Best Story : According to Annie Ong, staff, a pregnant woman recently had her water break on this C = 6, A = 0 sofa.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Most Deceiving - Good : Although this pair is springy, it provides C = 8 and according to staff, it's A = 0.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Firmest : This couch is surely not a source of comfort, C = 3. After some indecent behavior, it's now A = 3, according to Anita Ramos, student receptionist.

Media Credit: Ryan Baladad Comfiest : This super-soft sofa, not to brag, deserves C = 10 for the plush cushions. Period. A = 10 (to prove it), 3 (after April), depending on who you know.
