Rside by a long shot. Dont get me wrong Merced is a great school but Ill take ucr over it. Merced really wanted me to go there they offer me a full ride my first year but I just didnt like it both city and school. UCR is located in a city of 300,000 with a metro area of 2 mill and is also located in the greater LA area of 16 mil. Merced is a farm town of 50,000 with a metro of 500,000. Research UCR has the upper hand with the citrus research, the engineering school is top ranked. UCM has research but not as distinguished as UCR and engineering is small. Plus to top it all of the Med School soo UCR offer more opportunities.

But I say go where ever you are going to be happy. I felt UCR was going to make me happy so I went there even though I have to take out loans
