awesome! well, i can bust a move up until the moderate level, then i definitely fall off on expert. i should practice more, huh? so you think you're going to be ddr champion...we'll see about that!
Jalby said:Baylor does would end up giving you a higher board score, though. You know the 1.5 year basic science thing, then you can spend your time afterwards how you like. That gives them a ton of time to study, and that is probably solely the reason they have such high scores (and the smart people)
I donno which school I would choose here. Baylor, the school, is a great school. I would thrive in the type of environment they create, but I'm not sure most people would. I would have love the extremely compressed, and to a big extent, stressfull basic sciences that they do there. I definately think San Diego (the city) is a whole lot better than Houston. I'd probably go to Baylor 7 out of 10 times because I like almost everything else about the school. The women in San Diego are sooooooooo much better looking than Houston.
Ohhh. Wait, you asked for the strength's of UCSD. I wasn't paying attn. Compared to Baylor, Baylor the school would have most of the strengths. UCSD biggest stregths are location, and the fact it would be somewhat easier to get a better residency spot in california from UCSD. But your board scores would end up being ~7 points lower at UCSD (again, because of the time Baylor gives you), so I'm not sure how much of an advantage that would be. Baylor does do a great job setting you up to get the highest score that you can. Probably the best of any school I know of.

Does anybody know of any dog parks around the school?
there is a beautiful, smallish dog beach between solana beach and del mar (10 minutes north of campus on Torrey Pines through Del Mar, west of the race track). Also another one in Ocean Beach, but it smells much worse. Don't go barefoot in either place.BananaSplit said:Hi there!

deeznuts said:I don't know SD very well and I was wondering if any of you people could give me some advise where would be the best place to look for an apartment except La Jolla (too expensive). Thanks

So I got my Dance Dance Revolution stuff a few days ago. Check out the hilarious warnings that came with the dance pads:
"Forbidden to use this product if your feet are seriously injured. Stop immediately."
"Young children must be guided to use it or need parents and teachers to accompany, in case to be tumbled by it."
"High technology product, do not apart, separate or fix it anyway. Or the damage can not be guaranteed."
"Please put it on a flat floor, but not too smooth."
"Strong jump or shake may cause influence to the video and audio output."
"Please do not jump strongly, that may bring troubles to the other person."
I didn't realize DDR had so many damned rules I have to follow. Regardless, are you guys and girls of UCSD ready to "get your groove on?"

hoping2004 said:are you able to do two pads yet, alex?
Newquagmire said:i hear the average is at least $1k/month for your own bedroom.
Alexander99 said:Yes. All the homes there are super-nice and millions of dollars each. I think there are lots of +$10 million houses as well. Pretty much all retired rich people, CEOs, etc. I wouldn't want to live there cause everyone's old but I'd like to live in Rancho Santa Fe. Homes are $1-$3 million for the most part (some are almost $10 million as well) but they're much larger and overall pretty badass.
I haven't done two pads yet. I'm trying to unlock all of the songs but some of them are so hard (even if they're only level 5 songs.) It helps when you have a friend playing with you though--it's much easier to pass the songs for some reason.
hoping2004 said:wow...sounds like you're getting pretty good alex. i don't even want to play with you anymore!
Alexander99 said:Haha. I'm not that good. . .yet. I definately get tripped up when they have weird combos (like two arrows at the same time but not up/down or left/right which are the easy ones.) When it gets too fast, I can't catch up as well.
Well, you'd better start practicing if you want the UCSD DDR Cup.

just sent out the master promisory note from the lender as per UCSD SOM, so the loans are on their way at least. i got an estimated FA offer pretty early, don't know about anyone else.BananaSplit said:Did anybody get their financial aid offers yet? I just turned in my forms so I don't expect to hear anything for a week (or maybe a few weeks?).
purplekat said:Just a question to all you guys that got in to UCSD. That's where I want to go, so what kind of stats did u guys have (if you don't mind me asking)?
thanks! Those numbers are way too high for me 🙁BananaSplit said:Since you're from Cal, some relevant statistics:

My MCAT is slightly higher than SD's average. My GPA is somewhat below.
