University of California-San Diego Top Questions

Any type

Someone that wants to go to med school and has no other interests outside of the classroom.

Anyone who is studious, serious, and does not require an active social life should attend this school. Someone who is looking for an education and nothing more would LOVE this school. However, those who are looking for a more well-rounded college experience SHOULD attend this school if and only if they are willing to WORK to find the kind of people similar to themselves. These groups can be found and provide a very well-rounded college experience.

UCSD is a campus with a reputation that claims "socially dead." Although, all students may find many social events to participate in, no one will take the initiative to have people there. People who are self-willing to go out and meet new people are best fit for this university's social level. Students who are interested in the medical, science, or engineering field should definately consider this university as one of their top choices. The campus is only a few minutes away from the beach, so people who are athletic and enjoy sports are also well fit.

Someone who is academically focused and doesn't mind a lack of social life on campus.

studious, career/grad/med school oriented, loves the beach and warm weather, likes to stay indoors or enjoy the night life when and after 21 years old. Need to be socially active.

Anyone who is serious about education and interested in learning more should attend UCSD. Any individual who is open-minded and willing to try new experiences should also attend this school so that the diversity level amongst culture, sex, sexual orientation, can increase.

Someone who is able to be very self-driven. People who are not really sure what they want to do can try out a lot of different things here and see what they are most interested in. I think it is BEST though for people looking to go to grad school afterward, particularly Pre-Med.

Someone who can benefit from the level of academic competiveness. The fact people are willing to share notes and form study groups shows that UCSD isn't cut throat, however, there are a lot of hard-working, intelligent people who will raise the class average. That person must be willing to work hard not only due to the fact others are trying to do better than their peers, but because they want to learn. There are no easy classes at UCSD; you have to set goals for yourself and want to improve.

Someone who is research-oriented and want to major in a science or engineering.
