Comparing Undergrad Bio Programs: UCSD, UCLA, UCBerk

<p>I'm trying to choose between these three schools. I'm majoring in biology and I know I'm going to end up going to med school, beacuse I want to study to become an immunologist (probably). </p>

<p>I am not sure which school will offer the best overall academic and what not experience in biology. Any help, including websites that compare them or experience, would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Thank you,
Ankur</p>

<p>And where does Boston University and NYU rank with their programs along with those?
I'd like to travel to the east coast for college, but only if the school is as good....</p>

<p>......bump.....</p>

<p>I don't think NYU ranks as highly with UCLA, UCSD and UCB in Biology.
I wouldn't travel to the East Coast for BU either, when I've got these three equally good choices to choose from.</p>

<p>You want to become a Clinical Immunologist with an MD, go to Berkeley since it will increase your chance of getting into UCSF medical school, a great medical school which will help get a good internal medicine residency, then a Immunology fellowship.</p>

<p>I'm not sure if going to Berkeley will increase your chance of getting into UCSF. If you go to the Berkeley board, someone posted the figures for what percentage of Berkeley students get into UCSF, and the percentages are fairly small. </p>

<p>In my opinion, Berkeley is a better school for a bio major; however, I would not say that going to Berkeley significantly increases your chances of getting into UCSF, as compared to going to LA or SD.</p>
