<p>I was accepted into both UCBerkeley and UCLA as a neuroscience major and plan on having a premed emphasis. Which school is generally better for sciences and which would be better as a premed?</p>
<p>academically it doesn't matter. both are tough schools but are very strong in the sciences. go to the school where you would be happier as a student living on campus.</p>
<p>would ucla be a better choice since it has a med. school and ucla-harbor hospital?</p>
<p>well for berk, i heard many do research at UCSF</p>
<p>What? That would be really hard to do, since the UCB-UCSF commute would be crazy (BART to Mission and then MUNI via the nJudah?). Goodness knows you can't drive that because you wouldn't be able to park on either end.</p>
<p>they do the research in the summer at ucsf
sorry for the misunderstanding.- yes parking is like impossible at san franscico</p>
<p>Ah, yes. I don't think the research is so much the problem, since I'm sure Berkeley has a lot of life science stuff going on. The question is clinical exposure and such. I'm sure Alta Bates isn't accepting the flood of Berkeley premeds... so where do they go?</p>
