<p>Schools (in order of choices):</p>

<p>UCLA (BizEcon w/Accounting Minor)
USC (Double Major in Business and Accounting w/Economics Minor with concentration on Finance and Money) <--- Actually USC and UCLA should be on par. They are equally good.
Claremont McKenna (Econ-Accounting) <--- REALLY good school, but one thing that worries me is its quiet suburb (not good for recruition)
Cal (Economics) <--- not good for the purpose of recruition
UCSD (Economics) <--- UCSD isn't really famous for social science, is it?</p>

<p>MAYBE NYU (Finance) <-- Greater chance that I won't apply at all</p>

<p>Bah... I dun even bother with all those Ivy level schools like Stanford and MIT. I know I'll get killed while competing with all those brain-freaks there.</p>

<p>freshprince - no problem. Somebody from CC directed me to that link a couple weeks ago and I nearly crapped my pants. Those interested in Cornell should search for the "Cornell Decisions" thread, where you will see a string of rejections with a couple acceptances sprinkled in there. I think that's because most of those people were trying to transfer into CAS, which according to the data given, had a/b an 8% acceptance rate. Good luck to everyone goin for it!</p>

<p>I have a quick question for all of you columbia hopefuls... any thoughts on school of general studies?</p>
