<p>I will try to pay more attention to grammar 
also, I have gone through that thread and it has helped a lot, thank you!</p>
<p>Is an economics major (non-Haas) that bad for Cal? I feel like there will be added pressure for me to get into Haas at Cal whereas at Dartmouth, I won’t need to have that unneeded stress.</p>
<p>The difference between Cal and Dartmouth is $30,000 to $45,000 a year (my mom rounds up Dartmouth to $50,000 because of airfare/transportation/extra apparel costs). The only thing that is really stopping me from committing to Dartmouth right this minute is the cost, but the opportunities that Dartmouth presents seem so much more valuable. My parents can afford both but evidently, Dartmouth will take much more of their savings than Cal will. In the end, I know that it’s my decision and that I will end up working my hardest no matter where I go. It just comes to the question, where will working my hardest take me the furthest, in terms of success? And if it’s Dartmouth, will that $80,000 be worth it? I know that these questions are quite subjective but the deadline is approaching soon and I just really need all the help I can get.</p>
