mojo

i think the case of soc. vs comm. is more important than ucla vs ucb... since comm is your preferred major, imo you should just go to berkeley...

Go to Berkeley.. the town seems really "nifty" and laid back... and part of the college experience is living by yourself (IMO)..

Regarding living alone or not.. yeah that's probably a preference each person has, but I prefer to live alone because of my eclectic schedule. It would interfere with some else's. I think you can still make friends even if you don't live with a roommate..

Berkeley is probably my dream college.. but I doubt I'll get in because of their lib-ed req's and I think they also ask for SATs for Transfers

I agree with eracer...

I think your major is a top priority...

yeah mojo i'm from the valley. i really like la too, and i even actually like it more than i did before because i can actually compare it to something after living in norcal, but being in norcal is an amazing experience. just to be away from the parents... being forced to live independently... to navigate through a new area... it's really added to my character, as cheesy as it sounds.

mangazero, are u also worried about cal's size and people's individuality that they dont care about anyone!!?
Erm... UCLA is not smaller than UC Berkeley.

Additionally, you'd find more than a few SoCal people in Berkeley--at least that's what I found for the non-transfer class. Usually, it seems there's more SoCal than NorCal at Berkeley.


*shrug* Your choice, though I'm not sure why you necessarily believe that LA would likely be more fun as a city, it depends on personal feel.
