UCR or community college?

Visit UCR and then decide. It has lots of great professors to intern with and a med school if you’re interested in any health related careers. Employers value your major and your work experience more than your school’s name in biotech; a UCB grad with no internship experience isn’t going to land a lab tech job.

Basically, any UC will prepare you for a bio career. Riverside might actually be better than SC due to more internship opportunities. But if you hate the campus, or place pride in rankings, Organic Chemistry won’t be any different at community college.
