Hello,

I'm trying to decide whether to attend UCSF or UCLA next year, but I'm having trouble deciding. Are there any current students here that attend UCLA/UCSF that can shed some light on the pros and cons of each program? Thanks!
 
A few more questions that hopefully somebody can answer:

- How easy is it to interact with professors in the preclinical and clinical years? Are they easily accessible?
- I've heard that the UCLA curriculum is systems based, and each of your classes focus on one thing at the same time. Is that true? Is that the same for UCSF?
- I've also heard that the clinical graduation requirements for UCSF are also based on production. What does that mean, and how does it affect your clinical requirements?

Thanks!
