<p>It's actually UCLA vs WashU vs Hopkins</p>
<p>I'm looking to major in sciences so I would like a school with</p>
<p>-great/many research opportunities
-great professors who care
-a lively campus, clubs, friendly people
-great academics, i don't want to study 95% of my free time (maybe 80% lol)</p>
<p>UCLA
pros: In LA!, lots of people/clubs, not too far from home, west coast weather, nice campus, great academics, school spirit, beautiful people :P
cons: worried about standing out, competition, size, BUDGET cutbacks</p>
<p>WashU
pros: great education, profs, research opps, friendly people, lots to do on campus, good food/dorms
cons: st. louis is sketchy, don't really like downtown st. louis, don't know what else there is to do besides schoolwork., how are the girls at WashU?</p>
<p>Hopkins
pros: academics are good, research opportunities, probably most prestigious out of these 3.
cons: students spend too much time studying, not a lively campus, am i wrong here?, extremely far from home, large pre-med population. How are the girls there btw?</p>
<p>Any input is appreciated!</p>
