UCI or UCSD for social sciences? (i want to graduate with a high GPA)

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - San Diego

<p>I was admitted into UCI for School of Social Sciences and UCSD for Thurgood Marshall.</p>

<p>I am definitely majoring in a social science- psych, socio, philo, poli sci, or something of the sort.</p>

<p>I am very torn on this whole thing. One day I am 100% feeling for UCI, the next our I am 100% feeling for UCSD.</p>

<p>I don’t care about prestige of UCSD over UCI.
I want to get into law school and so I want to know which of the two schools is it better to attend to get a higher GPA while majoring in the social sciences.
Getting a high GPA IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME (this is the reason why i’m turning down berkeley and ucla, for easier competition at uci or ucsd).</p>

<p>So considering that I want to law school and major in a social science (psych, socio, philo, poli sci, or something of the sort) and graduate with the highest GPA possible, which school should I attend? UCI or UCSD?</p>

<p>getting a higher gpa for anything is probably harder than getting a high gpa at uci. that bein said, i only know about poly sci at ucsd and uci. uci's poly science department is ranked 31, ucsd is 9. the professor who talkd about poly sci yesterday was amazing, he seemed very caring about students, and you could tell that the poly sci professors are accessible if you make the effort.</p>

<p>when a school is ranked higher than another in a certain major it isn't false to conclude that it would be harder and more rigorous? what makes a school ranked higher than another one? example ucsd higher than uci?</p>

<p>i din mean its harder cusa rankings, ucsd is more competitive than uci, so its harder to get a better gpa. but major rankings im not sure wat theyr based on.</p>
