<p>now i know that cal has a WAYYY better business school,</p>

<p>and that UCLA only has biz econ and MBA only for graduates.</p>

<p>I really wanna go to UCLA but these facts are holding me back</p>

<p>what im wondering is would going to UCLA instead of cal affect my future career/pay by a lot?</p>

<p>i'm planning on going to grad school either way so i figure even if i go to UCLA i could get MBA later in the years?</p>

<p>With these plans, how much of a difference would it make to go to UCLA or Cal?</p>

<p>I just wanna go to UCLA because i hear its more fun there....</p>

<p>You're going to make an important decision like this based on what you've "heard"?</p>

<p>I don't think either will be better for grad school.</p>

<p>WOW, i have the same exact situation as you. i've been to both campuses and the girls there are so ugly at berkeley. UCLA is so much better looking, hands down. You can even look on **************.com and look at the ratings on social life and stuff. Ucla seems much more well rounded. Plus i've talked to people who have gone to both and the quality of life seems so much better at ucla. Sure Cal might be better academically, but the experience at ucla is so much better. The way i see it, Berkeley seems like it has a whole bunch of people who didn't quite have a social life in high school and still don't have one in college. owned.</p>

<p>^^ are you a troll?</p>

<p>You probably should go to UCLA; Berkeley isn't for close-minded, superficial trolls like you.</p>

5

<p>lol no im not a troll</p>

6

<p>alright maybe just a little troll</p>

7

<p>For business, go with Cal. Haas is a top class business school.</p>

<p>And really, fun is what you make it to be. You can find plenty examples at both schools of people who really enjoy themselves.</p>

8

<p>omnipotence is right. but ucla has way more examples</p>

9

<p>honestly, though, isnt a degree in econ better than an undergraduate business degree? its more open, rite?</p>

10

<p>not necessarily.</p>

11

<p>Specialization can be very attractive. Besides, Business Administration is rather open in itself.</p>

12

<p>the way i see it (i'm a double major in biz and econ at cal), econ is more substantive than business, but haas gets you the name and prestige to easily get started after graduation.</p>

<p>adrianphanny has some of the most biased/ridiculous posts i've ever seen. don't try to give people advice on where to go if you haven't even been in college. what, do you have an inferiority complex or something, because "cal is better academically" and so you're grasping at straws in an attempt to make ucla sound more appealing?</p>

13

<p>If there are no "hot" girls, you might have to go for <em>gasp</em> personality and compatibility.</p>

14

<p>Go to UCLA. Please.</p>

15

<p>^that is referring to adrianphanny right</p>

16

<p>are you sure he'll be able to read between the lines..</p>

17

<p>if he can't, then trolls are dumber than i thought.</p>

18

<p>im dumber than i think too</p>

19

<p>bump!</p>

<p>i also would really like to hear input about this because i'm in the same position. cal pre-business and ucla pre-bizecon. i heard that haas is really really tough to get into, so going to berkeley would basically mean betting that i can beat the curve in the prereq classes and get in.</p>

As though Berkeley students shine like a beacon. That Berkeley isn't all "glitz and glamor" like UCLA's location does not mean the students are somehow less "superficial" or more down-to-earth. Many of the "brat" stereotypes are attributed to geographic location; there are "close-minded, superficial" students aplenty at Berkeley. I've overheard guys at the RSF talking trash about girl quality more than a few times.</p>

<p>Also, there are many layers to superficial. Elaborating on stereotypes, if one says UCLA students are superficial in the "physical attraction" sense, Berkeley students are equally guilty in the careerist sense. So if UCLA students desire "hot people", and Berkeley students lust after big money or prestigious jobs, who's to say which is less superficial? </p>

<p>Anyway, back on topic, ask yourself how much effort you want to put into academics. Less effort? UCLA. More effort? Berkeley.</p>
