<p>a bruin is like a bear, but better...aka la is like cal but better...haha just joshin!</p>
<p>yeah... i agree i'd choose UCLA over Cal...</p>
<p>Shinseki, a bruin is a tiny, dickless bear. Not that this says anything about how UCLA students compare to Berkeley students...</p>
<p>"get your own damn fight song, get your own damn mascot, get your own damn colors"-back of a cal t-shirt i saw at a cal-ucla football game.</p>
<p>But to reiterate, cal>ucla.</p>
<p>I'm in the same situation; Cal vs. LA. Why do you guys prefer LA over Berkeley?</p>
<p>I'd scream to the top of my lungs, and then run out into the street and scream as if I were a madman!</p>
<p>Eee!!</p>
<p>Also, I'd choose UC Berkeley over UCLA ANY day.</p>
<p>l8z</p>
<p>Well, I'm prolly gonna choose LA over Cal(assuming I get in) because I'm going pre-med and LA has the med school that Cal doesn't. Also, Cal is way too close too home for me(within 3 hour drive).</p>
<p>i would be the opposite of you shinseki...LA is within a three-hour drive of me!</p>
<p>I'd pic Cal over UCLA
so by any chance i get in, im taking all my friends of legal age to a casino and give them each $100 to blow</p>
<p>UCLA is within a 20-minute drive for me. Well, probably a little longer with all the congestion on the 10 freeway.</p>
<p>i would reject Cal in an instant UCSD and UCLA kill them in everything well maybe not in engineering except for bio med. eng.</p>
<p>You guys Cal obviously owns LA...those freaking biters.</p>
<p>dude UCLA is so much better... hotter chicks, better weather, better location</p>
<p>id go play videogames</p>
<p>I'd take the scholarship money and honors program at UCI over Cal. Oh wait that already did happen last year :). But yeah, I was pretty excited when I first learned I got into Berkeley too.</p>
<p>I'd say "What???? I never even applied to Cal!"</p>
<p>yackityyack: do you ever regret that decision? or think "what-if" if u went to cal? or are you very happy at irvine in the honors prog?</p>
<p>I'm happy here. The only thing that I would like is for UCI to have a big (well, or small) football team, but I figure I'll go somewhere for grad school that has one so now I won't have any conflicting loyalties, haha. That's pretty much it. I like how it is really cheap for me here, I get priority registration, and feel I am being prepared well for grad school with the honors program. I also like that it was a big change from my town in the NorCal central valley, albeit Berkeley would have been a big change too. I have met some really awesome people too and made some really good friends, so that influences ones happiness too. Also, Berkeley only let me in for the Spring semester so I would have either had to wait out my first semester of college and gone to a JC or done their extension program where you aren't really a student there. Anyways, I'm definitely glad I'm here but I have no hate for Berkeley (In fact I'm wearing a cal shirt as a type this haha).</p>
<p>Yeah definetely go UCLA, Berkeley is a nerd school
A Bruin is like a child bear way better than a Golden Bear, what the hell's that I thought bears came in two colors black and brown?</p>
<p>what would win in a fight.. a bruin or a bear</p>
