Re: British Mech Eng Student - Year in the US
I go to RPI. Academically it is very strong, socially...not so much. The male-to-female ratio is heinous, and while Albany is reasonably pleasant, Troy (the town RPI is actually in) sucks. I'm pretty certain you would enjoy yourself better at any of the other four. You're going to have to tell us which campus of UC you're talking about. I'm guessing it's the Berkeley campus (the one referred to as Cal). Whether it's that or UCLA, you'll get a very good education there, and I think it's the same for Illinois and Georgia Tech as well. Don't know about Penn State to comment on them.
