I can’t comment on the academic aspect of the schools as I’m not going into med and I’m still picking which college I want to go to. But I visited Cal, UCLA and WashU and personally, the quality of life of all three are all pretty good. They all differ [Cal has that little town around it w/all these shops, UCLA has Westwood, and WashU has that nice park in front], but personally I think WashU is not worth THAT much extra money. The facilities at WashU owns UCLA/Cal because it’s a private so all the pros of a private school goes along with it, but in terms of living there- I don’t know about you, but I’m not that happy to hand over that much more money…
