same situation!

I also was accepted to UCSD (revelle) and UCI -> bio
WHY!!!! did i NOT look up GE requirements for revelle before i signed up X_X 6 courses for humanities!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I currently live 15 minute drive away from UCSD, and i've already sent my statement of intent to register. But in the back of my mind, i just doubt my ability to succeed in college..at home. will i survive 6 humanities courses..
At UCI, i'd get the full college experience, independence, dorm, dorm food....
But then, i tend to over idealize things, only to crash later on.

UCSD is a very good school...my uncle went there (after 2 year community college) and going to UCI would be 'lower' and the bio/research is very good. But to me, it seems like college life is, wake up, drive to school, go home, study, eat, sleep. What if UCSD turns out to be my highschool, boring experience???
There are soo many whatif's
Ok, i think i'm done ranting.
BTW i'd go to the UCSD and UCI admit days to find out what each has to offer.
