UPenn or UCLA

Hi,

I got admitted to my first major, Biochemistry, at both universities for premed. I would appreciate any suggestions about where it is better to start the path towards med-school and any insights into the academics, life, opportunities etc. at both unis. I am waiting for my financial aid packet from UPenn (some papers were missing) and for an out-of-state student at UCLA, I got a decent package. Where would you go?

Thanks in advance!

Here’s an older thread with some pretty informative replies:
