I like the east side of LA a lot (silverlake, echo park), but that's too far from UCLA to drive daily. I would totally live there for USC though.

I figure UCLA is the best bang for the buck on the west coast.
Any lower ranked school is shitty and Stanford and Berkeley would both be too expensive.

So I take it you're likely not staying in LA?

I mean idk I'd like to and I would be down for UCLA or maybe USC with a lot of money, but for a t6 I'd have no problem moving (in theory). I'm from here, but I moved away for college, now I'm back and it would be really really hard to leave again I think. What about you?

Have family in LA, been thinking UCLA recently too. I'd go for a decent scholly. If you look at employment numbers, its not really that different from Berkley, so I'd take that hit in the rankings.

I'm all about debt minimization so I feel like I'd be more inclined to take a super generous UCLA offer if T14 would push me really far into debt. Of course there's a decreased chance at getting a prime outcome, but I could see myself doing a lot of different things so im not necessarily Biglaw or bust or going all in on the LRAP train either.

UCLA in my mind is what I get when I try to hedge all bets. I'm sure they would love to have me in their admissions brochure next year with that attitude!

Yeah I think there's an argument to be made that more Berkeley students self select out of buglaw though so their numbers are artificially depressed.
I just have always heard berkeley is a nightmare with financial aid. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

Same. Also just quality of life wise, I think I might have a hard time freezing my ass off somewhere like Chicago. And it would be nice to have the support of my family and friends during school, though I see both sides and there are positives to having to immerse yourself in a new city etc. But yeah, UCLA with a lot of money would be hard to turn down for me.

I know this is an unpopular opinion regarding Berkley but I am not a fan of northern California.
