What kind of difference does it make on rather I go to a UC school or Cal state school? -

uc schools are research and theory based. if you want to become a professor or continue onto graduate school, then the uc system is better for you. uc s cost more, and are more selective. however, they have a better reputation.csu schools gear more towards practical or applicable careers. calstates, in my opinion are better in every sense other than the reputation that graduating from ucla/ucsd/berkeley will yield, as the professors train you with more useful knowledge.it depends a lot on what major you re going to select. obviously, if you d like to go into a research-based field such as psychology, medicine, mathematics, etc, then i d choose a uc. if you are looking into business, liberal arts, or the humanities, then i would suggest the csu system.if a csu school works with your learning style, then you should choose that, especially if you re planning on going to graduate school. though the uc s cater towards advancing to grad school, you should choose the school system that you will thrive in as far as the speed (uc s are quarter, csu are semester), the class sizes (csu tend to be smaller), professor/student interaction, and such go.good luck, and i hope you go to a school that you love.

you should ask this question in the higher education section. but i can answer your question. i go to csulb and it is a pretty good school. although UC s are ranked better than the cal states, this does not necesarilly mean it will benefit you in the long run. what i ve noticed is that UC s are more research oriented schools where as cal states are more designed to get people ready for the labor force. if you are any type of science/ math related major then i would choose a UC. they are definetely better for those majors. but other majors like business/fine art/ i would choose a cal state. if you are talking about what kind of job you get. it really doesn t matter these days whether you get your degree from UCLA o CSULB unless you want a phd because UC s are almost more than twice the price of Cal States, so that is something to consider. so bottom line, if you are a science related major and you can afford the tuition, i would go to a UC. if not, Cal States are a great school system. good luck.

I have attended both a UCLA and graduated from CSUN, and basically the 2nd answer got it right!be aware though, it is much harder to get into a UC school than a CSU

The amount of money you ll pay. It s only a name. You ll be learning the same S|-|IT.

I live in SF and love it... must move to SD (Marina) and am sad... please tell me the goods.? -

I will not have a car will be looking to get a job and get into school again perhaps as well. I have a house in AZ that I will be trading out for a condo at The Pinnacle (other suggestions?) possibly since i do not wish to live in AZ (grew up there) and SD is closer for family than SF plus cheaper to live and better weather. those are the only positives so far and I am sad and scared to be quite honest. I have moved knowing no one so many times and just not wanting to again but... must for family-sake.

Disneyland. Famous (to me small just because it s the only zoo I ve been to)zoo. Includes pandas. And most animals are not kept in a glass place, sometimes no fence or wire just open sky area for animals. Legoland. Mexico. Ucsd.Good luck

There are lots of things to do in San Diego. Learn more about the possibilities at http://www.sandiego-romantics.comSan Diego is a large city that is spread out into many different communities. Getting around without a car can be a challenge. Learn more about their public transportation at http://www.sdcommute.com/.Moving can be a challenge. After you begin doing things in San Diego (job, school, hobbies), you ll find that the people in San Diego are friendly and you ll feel much better.Good luck!

What to wear to washington dc? -

I am going to washington dc with chorus. i dont know what to bring. should i bring pants or shorts, or both. I am going in december. whats your weather normally like then? should i wear flip flops, or sneakers? We are going to sing at the pentagon, how formal is it there? PLEASE HELP ME!

The temperature will be in the 30s or 40s, and windy. Forget about bringing shorts and flip-flops--it will be too cold for them. You ll want long pants and a heavy coat plus gloves. The teenage girls tend to wear Ugg boots, which are warm and pretty comfortable.As for what to wear while actually at the Pentagon, your chorus director should tell you what the outfit will be. In general, performances in Washington tend to be more formal, like wearing white shirts and dark pants.

Well the pentagon is usually very formal so nice clothes is a must, it does get quite cold in December but it doesn t tend to snow, so just bring what your comfortable in and also back-ups in case it does get cold.

The pentagon usually requires more formal dress. It s usually quite cold in december, but snow is rare... if you re going to be walking around the city, sightseeing, etc. then sneakers are a must.
