<p>I need help choosing an undergrad college! I'm in between Cognitive at UCSD and Biomedical Engineering at UCD. I read that Cog at UCSD is about top 10 while UCD's BME is about top 30. I originally applied to UCSD for BME as primary major, but I got into my second choice major. I understand that in theory I could just go from UCSD's Cog major and enter into the BME/neuro field. I live NorCal, but I have no problem going to Socal. In your opinion do you think there is an easy way to compare the two, or are we just talking apples and oranges? Thanks!-IVP</p>
<p>Bump. Assistance please! (:</p>
<p>it really depends on what you want to do in your future career - is it cog sci or biomedical engineer? if you’re dead set on being a biomedical engineer, UCD might be the safer route since it’s never 100% guaranteed that you’ll get into the UCSD biomed engineering program. if the prestige of the school matters a lot in whatever you’re doing, you can always apply to the UCSD grad school while securing an undergrad degree in biomed engineering from ucd</p>
<p>Thanks Quick, I’ll take that into consideration</p>
