have been accepted to both UCSD and UCB (spring admit)
I have beeen not able to sleep the past few weeks due to this matter!

Pros of UCSD

start in the fall when everyone is

have close friends going there

has the “college experience” of both a world class education and fun

Seems more laidback, less tension, competition may be evident but also not too much as in a fiasco

I love the beach there and its beautiful

rank 37 in the entire world for Social sciences; which i plan to major in

can imagine myself being happy here

more space

i can get a higher GPA here then berkeley. (for grad school)

Cons of UCSD

I got into sixth college: a very far and seculded spot for political science

political science is not as much impacted but they have one of teh finest poli sci professors

hard to have office hours with professors

does nto have the name berekeley has

Pros of UCB

The best education in poli sci. ranked 2nd in social sciences after harvard in the entire world!

Better quality of education then ucsd but oth institutions offer superb education. UCB offers a bit better one.

has a name, as in well known through out the country.

Cons of UCB

I got admited to spring admit so i would not be having friends when i get there.

the major i am applying for is poli sci and its very impacted. very impacted!

everone can do well on tests but the curve is unforgiving

GPA may be low. maybe VERY LOW

afraid that i might fail

Hate the hippie town and area

Bay area is alright but i dont think i can live there

Professors dont care about you

people are into clicks and dont interact

DIFFICULT!!!

i feel that i have been accepted miraculously

dont feel prepared

my parents want me to go there!

no parties?
These are just my preferences!

Please help me in deciding!! I call out to the college confidential community for this! if im wrong PLEASE correct me. THANKSSS<33
