<p>Hi, I got into UCLA and UCSD for psychology. UCLA only offers a BA in psych, where as UCSD offers a BS. I've decided I want to go pre-med, which school and degree is better for this? I know research is important, but so is prestige. Any opinions?</p>
<p>UCSD, get a B.S. degree. </p>
<p>UCSD is very prestigious, especially for students who are pre-med.</p>
<p>BA or BS. Doesn’t matter. Just go to the school you are most comfortable with. </p>
<p>Prestige doesn’t matter much for med school. UCSD and UCLA are pretty well known anyways.</p>
<p>Agree with theregoesevan</p>
<p>check out which program appeals to you more. You will tend to do better in a program that interests you.</p>
<p>agree with evan</p>
<p>Both are great schools. Choose the school that best appeals to you and you feel more comfortable in. The name and reputation of a school is great but it won’t compare to your GPA and MCAT’s. </p>
<p>In my opinion, I would choose UCLA.</p>
