I'm applying to both (i'm a junior so this will be next year) but i really really want to go to UCLA or UC Berkeley (because they offer what i want)...i dont think Berkeley will work out cuz my GPA's not that high...i have 3.9 and hopefully it'll get higher by senior year (if i keep getting straight A's!). I can't wait 'till university! Sounds like great fun...for those who are already there, how is it? Just like you thought? Good?...Bad?...Spill!

Its such a hype to getting to college...but after about a month it stops becoming as much fun.

I wouldn't have it any other way...

I'm going to apply to UC's because they offre the pharmacy I want. UC San Francisco is my top choice because it is the top ranked pharmacy school in the nation. I think I can get in but we'll see, it's very difficult.

haha college apps were not too fun. but I applied to UCI, UCSB, UCR, UCSD, and UCD. my only state was SDSU. im realling hoping for UCI tho.

Make sure when you apply, dont wait til the last few days. This year a lot of people waited til the end and the UC server shut down at one point so they had to extend the deadline. I dunno if its happened in years past but yeah, its stressful when the site doesnt work too well.

Best of luck to the seniors.. woohoo c/o 2004!!

Yeah...UCI is a great school.
Alot of people from my high school went there, actually. I never saw the campus myself, but I heard its a wonderful school.

UCSB...if you have never been to the campus...go to the campus. Its remarkable! Thats where I wanted to go...but apparently they don't like CNAS (College of Nature and Sciece) majors. Thats just what I think though.

UCR...hehe. Can't say much there unless you want to be involved in Philosophy somehow. They got the best department of the UC's I think. I know UCSC has got the top Physics Department in the world, I think. Kinda cool...if you are a physics major.

Ohmygosh..yes. So many of my friends had problems because they waited until the last minute. Most of them said that on the 30th, the server wouldn't even let them log in and they waited around for hours almost in tears. I was so thankful that I sent in mine on Thanksgiving..beat out the crowd! :p

But..my colleges were:
UCSB
UC Davis
Cal Berkeley
UCLA
UC Santa Cruz

and San Jose State & San Fran State.

'04 baby! :D
