UCSD Bioengineering or UCLA/UC Berkeley switch to engineering?

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am currently a senior in high school who is frantically trying to decide between three schools: UC Berkeley, UCLA, and UCSD. The problem with making the decision is that I am thinking of switching into engineering(possibly MechE, EE, or BioE) at UC Berkeley or UCLA. Currently, I am in BioE at UCSD which I know is one of the best BioE programs in the nation. However, I'm worried that if I do not like BioE, MechE or EE would have been better to do at the other schools.</p>

<p>Is it worth the risk attending UC Berkeley or UCLA trying to switch from Biochemistry in L&S to EE, MechE, or BioE? Is there anyone here that was able to do so? What would be the reason to choose UCSD for BioE over the other two schools?</p>

<p>Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! The SIR is two weeks away and so I want to use my time as wisely as I can. Thank you!</p>

<p>From what I’ve read. Mechanical Engineering & Aerospace Engineering are competitive majors to apply at UCLA so it’s probably hard to do internal transfer. For UCB, Bioengineering, EECS, and undeclared engineering are competitive majors to apply so I think it’s probably hard to do internal transfer.</p>
