Hi guys, so i recently got accepted into these 3 colleges and I seriously can not choose where to go to. My goal is to get my pre-med done soo..
lets get to my point:
1) UCSD = I applied for biochem but got accepted with an "undeclared" major (you see this doubt me), but its one of the best schools and its only 2 hours drive. However, i heard the major i want to go to is impacted so its going to be really hard to squeeze in. Plus, the competition there is really tough too just like ucla and cal.. So i dont know. Though, I like how it's next to the beach and not away from social life. I visited the campus. Not like most people, I was not impressed about it. The buildings are old and the area seemed dirty and bland. Maybe I expect too much.. Oh well, I guess any other campuses are like that too.
2) UCD = I applied for "biochemistry and molecular biology" and I got it. I was pretty stoked and was actually pretty sure to go study there However it's 8 hours away from home which means I have to fly there. But the saying that davis is "out of nowhere" (1 hour from SF) and the smell of cows' poop and the bad weather just making me nervous to decide to go there. I meant, I don't want to spend the rest of my 4 years in a place like that. Although it may not clearly true. But who knows? Because I also heard that the people are all so friendly there. And the competition is not so uptight. I have never visited the campus and so, i am pretty clueless about the school area..
3) UCI = I applied for biochem but I got into "Biological Science" which is not bad at all. I meant why not? But my friend recommended to me not to take that major because they make you memorize a lot of botanical terms? (haha i know). Thus, I don't really consider UCI as much for my choice, ALTHOUGH, its only 1 hour away from my house. My brother goes to UCI too so i will not worry about trying to fit in and stuff..
I got into UCR too, but nah.. I'm just kinda struggling between pretty much UCD and UCSD.. So guys, pleasee help me out on this. thanks appreciate all the opinions and helps !
