Best place to go to university in USA? (Esp. California)
So I want to do postgrad in the States. Want to go to a good uni, but there are plenty of them. So, assuming I just want to go to one of the best 20 or so schools in the U.S, where is best to live?
I'm very tempted by California as AFAIK it is very multicultural, has an amazing climate, and lots of girls walking around in tank tops. It also has 4 of the top 15 schools in the U.S for Economics postgrad (Stanford, UCLA, Berkeley, San Diego). I don't really know much about the advantages of San Diego v. LA v. San Fransisco v. whatever. What are the various +s and -s of each option? |

Despite how gay the Red Sox are I looked at a ton of schools in Boston. It looked like a great place to go to school.

By San Diego do you mean USD or UCSD?

Weak sauce. You should check out USD. Amazing campus with amazingly good looking women. Pretty good school as well.

Boston would be my choice, but I'm a bit biased. The only real con I could think of is that it gets cold in the winter and I HATE COLD

[/ QUOTE ] True, at least in the northeast. I was in FLA and the girls there were generally good looking. I get back home and see a bunch of pale bitches. Damn. Even worse, I go back to school and there are no girls!!1 |
