I'm a computer science undergrad at UCLA nearing graduation. Although it may not be much help to you for deciding, but I must say you will probably be happy with either choice from an academic standpoint. I think the UC system has done a fabulous job gathering talent and creating an excellent and competitive curriculum at a very affordable price. Now let's get a little more practical. I've never been to the UCSD camp…
I'm attending UCLA this fall and I left the CS program 10 years ago. Do you have any advice as to what is an easier upper division CS class? I've taken CS181 and that was not that bad. I would be looking for something like that if possible?
