@thats what I plan to do on transfer day:visit the career center and ask what career perspective you can do with your major or try to contact alumni at same major to ask from their experiences. Imo, if you definitely want to do actuary, you should choose either actuary track or stats track. Applied math doesn’t do much about actuary, but give you more flexibity. Whatever, Ocnative was right, you can’t go wrong with either school. Both offer top education. To me UCB just has little best of both worlds. If stats doesn’t work out for me then I can change into applied math or vice versa. With UCLA, they only have applied math program.
I haven’t visit cal yet but UCLA seems to be more well-rounded in term of academic and social life becos all my friends there are having a great time. That’s why my list doesn’t have lots of cons for ucla. Or maybe I just don’t have friend at cal, that’s why my assumption is kinda one sided.
After hearing from many advise, I think what matters is the environment that I’m more fit in.
I’m going to visit both schools before the d-day. So excited over it >_< ! Are you coming to the bridge transfer weekend? I registered already but don’t know if I can get in 
Oh one more thing, look for the company you want to work for after graduate. They tend to hire ppl from school around them. So this may help you choose school too.
