<p>Hi guys I'm trying to decide between UCSD, USC, Smith and Reed. These are all extremely different colleges I know, it's the reason I'm having such a tough time deciding. I'm a biomedical engineering major looking to head off Fall 2014. I really liked Smith but I'll be part of biological sciences program there because they don't offer biomedical engineering. I know that in terms of rankings and resources UCSD is number 3 but I can't connect to the school for some reason. Tuition isn't the most important factor in my decisions, I'm mostly looking for the colleges which will open doors for me in the future and let me take as much as possible. I want a college with a very strong academic environment and a good social atmosphere. Also I'm not big on the party scene.</p>
<p>Which college would you choose and why?</p>
