Scripps v. UCM (v. Berkeley v. UCI v. Cal Poly)?

<p>I’ve visited Scripps once and plan on visiting again this weekend. I kind of disliked it, mostly because my own awkwardness and my host’s unengaging attitude made for an unpleasant experience, and I felt like the people I met were kind of pretentious except for her roommate and her roommates’ friends. I have to admit that it felt kind of claustrophobic, and I’ll probably feel that every now and then if I actually go there. I’m just not sure to what extent.</p>

<p>Berkeley didn’t appeal to me overly much either, though. It was a little too big, although I think I might get along with people better there. I also don’t want to put myself in a bad situation where I find that I can’t handle the workload.</p>

<p>I haven’t really been thinking that the resources at Berkeley would be better, except maybe for lab research etc. I was more thinking that Scripps would have less bureaucracy to deal with and so on because it’s smaller. I’ll keep your thoughts in mind though. So far the price is still the main deal breaker for me. x__x</p>
