[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UCLA has been the preferred choice among applicants admitted to both schools for several years now, as well as having a notably lower admission rate overall. I've been surprised by how many DCUM posters seem to hold the impression that Berkeley is the superior school in this day and age; on the west coast, they are clearly considered peer schools. One key difference not previously mentioned, I believe, is that [b]UCLA has a medical school on campus. This leads to an even broader array of research opportunities for students in the biomedical sciences.[/b] Additionally, UCLA has a four-year housing guarantee. Berkeley's is only one year. The off campus housing market for both areas is very expensive, so guaranteed housing has a real effect on quality of life. That said, more similarities than differences between them.

They have HUGE advantages there with that kind of access. [/quote]
