<p>Man.. i'm not happy with the schools i got into</p>
<p>well umm... you made a thread... so.. are we supposed to help you decide or what? What schools did you get into?</p>
<p>Can I post in this thread regarding the same thing?</p>
<p>Before having seen either of the two schools I've been accepted to (SD & LA), I'm conflicted. I guess that's natural.</p>
<p>The thing that makes it weird is I applied to two different majors that can both lead me down the same career path. </p>
<p>At UCSD, I was accepted as a management science major and at UCLA, I was accepted as a Math/Applied Science major and would most likely go with the Operations Research track if I do go there. </p>
<p>The Math/Applied Science major has roughly an equal share of classes between math and economics classes, which I guess is more similar to UCSD's Math/Econ major, whereas UCSD's Management Science major is going to be a lot of economics (specifically micro-) classes that emphasize the quantitative side of things. </p>
<p>While my Math grades through my life have been pretty good and I'm confident in my math abilities, I'm not sure if I'm cutout for a math intensive major. ...and I'm not even sure I want to be taking math classes for the next two years, I don't find myself enjoying it (relatively...duh). </p>
<p>I'm not looking to get my PhD or anything, my career plans are currently: graduate, find a job (as of now, I'm thinking something in finance/investment banking/consulting) for a few years, then get into an MBA program. In the long run, where I receive my MBA from is huge, but getting into an MBA program is largely dependent on your work experience, internships, and undergraduate major/gpa. </p>
<p>I'm not really sure what it's like to find internships through UCSD for things like this, and I suspect that UCLA will be more resourceful than this. Also, by search on this forum and just searching around in general, I can't seem to figure out which will present me with more job opportunities in the aforementioned fields once I receive my bachelor's. </p>
<p>If anyone could help me with this or point me in a direction that would help, that would be great.</p>
<p>Oh, and Berkeley would have been ideal (had everything worked out since the major I applied to is capped...to a very small number) as I applied to an Operations Research/Management major and that seemed to fit all my needs (and was close to home so everyone was happy!). Oh well, gotta settle with what I've got, and they're not bad options :)</p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
