Doubts

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - GENERAL

I chose UC Berkeley over UCLA and am now having serious doubts and regrets.

UC Berkeley seems less safe and the dorms and food aren’t as good as that of UCLA’s. I don’t feel ready for independence at UC Berkeley.

I only chose UC Berkeley because I felt like I would fit in more as a studious introvert. But I have changed over time, and I feel like I want a balanced life now with both fun and academics, which I feel would be more possible at UCLA.

I am also a pre-med in NutriSci at UC Berkeley.

I don’t mean to sound ungrateful or whiny but this is what I’m feeling right now.

Does anyone mind sharing with me

  1. Good things about Cal
  2. Disadvantages of UCLA
  3. Stuff about being pre-med at Berkeley
  4. Their experiences with choosing between Berkeley and LA and how it went for them
