<p>ok, im a community college transfer student. now i have two choice
one, is UCSB as biochem major, one is UCI as psychology major then change major to biology
but i heard UCI extremely hard, but i really like the location which close to my house, UCSB is a nice school, but UCI is more known, but UCSB has less competitive.
so please help me! which one should i go! thanks!!~</p>
<p>UCI might be more known in the neighborhood near your house, but statewide and nationally they are about equally well-known, with perhaps and edge now going to UCSB - since UCSB profs have won several Nobel prizes in recent years.</p>
<p>They are both mid-level UCs. Shoot for whichever one fits you better.</p>
<p>would gradu school choose people from UCI more likely rather than SB?</p>
<p>no, grad schools pick the best students from each school.</p>
<p>it sounds like you prefer UCI, so thats the school you should attend. grad schools are happy with students from either school.</p>
<p>which one should you prefer then~ if same situation as me</p>
