exsequarI am so hopelessly behind on LJ it's not even funny. What's going on kids? I bet you didn't even notice I was gone.
Visit at UCSF (University of California-San Francisco) went pretty well. It rained for the entire day we were supposed to be sight seeing so I pretty much didn't see the city. Quite a bummer because I honestly do not see what all the fuss is about. Seattle was infinitely more pretty to me. Then again, the program here is ridiculously top notch, like, on par with MIT and Stanford, at least in this area. There's a lot of exceedingly exciting research going on here, and I think I could definitely find a really amazing project to be a part of. The people are really nice too, though often pretty intense. I honestly did not feel the same sense of camaraderie here as I did at Washington - at UW I felt like a part of something almost immediately. Here, not so much, though I obviously didn't meet everyone. And apparently the money thing's pretty manageable, though most people have to live with like 4 roommates.
Basically there are a million factors in this decision. I could make mile-long Pro/Con lists (and probably will). I have no idea how I'm going to choose!!
(But first I have to get in.)
((I almost want to not get into one of them to make my decision for me.))
(((Ahhhhhhhhh so hard.)))
