<p>i didn’t mean to imply that LA is an idle city. there are things to do. i was responding to the continuing point that sf sucks because it doesn’t have a beach.</p>
<p>Gotcha.</p>
<p>Yeah, I find that the beach, while nice, is somewhat overused as an argument for LA’s finer points. So few Angelenos appreciate the great museum scene in LA! It makes me sad.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>heh heh… beach… :)</p>
<p>I’ve visited both schools, and one would be a fool to say LA isn’t better in termps of campus aesthetics, social life, sports teams, women. Everything else is debatable, whereas I dont find those 4 aspects to be.</p>
<p>Hey CCers, I’m in need of advice here. Originally I was planning on applying to transfer to Cal or LA this fall (2007) as a poli sci major. I’ll have my pre-reqs and IGETC done by this semester with a 3.7ish gpa. However, I’m beginning to think poli-sci isn’t for me. I want to switch to environmental science or biology but the problem is I won’t be able to finish all the pre-reqs by next spring. I was wondering if I should spend an extra year at my cc (3 years) or apply as a poli sci major this fall and then switch majors if I’m accepted?</p>
<p>everything is debatable. period. </p>
<p>both schools are great, and i do happen to like both areas a great deal. each is just suitable for a very different person. everything i find lacking in LA, i find in berkeley, and vice versa. </p>
<p>UCLAri, did you go to the magritte exhibit earlier this year put on by lacma? things like that definitely had me questioning my decision for weeks.</p>
<p>skwz i’m confused… did you already get into cal/la for this coming 07-08 school year?</p>
<p>
campus aesthetics? if you like a cheap tore-up version of stanford!</p>
<p>
Sorry for the confusion, I mean I’m hoping to apply to transfer this fall</p>
<p>honestly, skwz, if i were you, i would try to squeeze in the prereqs for the other majors you’re considering in the next year (if there are only 3-4 prereqs for those majors, then it’s totally doable… take advantage of summer school, winter intersession, and late start classes) and apply for one of those majors. if you don’t get in, then you have nothing to lose in that case by staying an extra year. but if you can do it all, then avoid that third year like the plague.</p>
<p>hey mojo i just wanted to tell you… if you decide you want to go to cal after you visit and are excited to buy a sweater/shirt/whatever, then DON’T buy it from the student store. it’s a major rip off. you’ll save like $20 on a sweater by going into one of the stores on bancroft or telegraph. i bought a sweater today for $20 at joy’s on telegraph and channing; in the student store it costs $40.</p>
<p>OH WHAT!! thanks for letting me know! cuz i was saying to myself “damn, if i get excited after i go on my trip and i submit my sir on campus, then i will go to the bookstore and buy the sweater” lol…</p>
<p>ps: can i see the design of your sweater?</p>
<p>uhh oddly enough the student store online site doesn’t have a picture of my sweater though it’s really typical. it’s just a navy hoodie with berkeley across in gold letters. but they had these designs too, which are also pretty popular with students: <a href=“Official Online Store”>Official Online Store; (in navy with gold lettering) and <a href=“Official Online Store”>Official Online Store; both were $20</p>
<p>I like the one that says Cal on it, whats the name of the store?</p>
<p>joy’s on telegraph and channing. it’s like… a block or two from sproul. right across from amoeba.</p>
<p>thanks!!!..</p>
<p>If i go to cal i want the brown hoodie with the tan lettering</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Cheap tore up version of stanford > Cheap tore up version of homeless park</p>
