UNIVERSITY
OF SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA
Lets start of with 'why?'.
Well, whats not to like about beautiful sunny
southern california.
The weather is excellent, the people are great, and the general
atmosphere is incredible. There is no place in the world like
southern california.
THE PEOPLE
I can't speak for everybody, however, I can make a general
statement that most
people in California are very layed back. Just like the northeast
is known
for
a very fast paced, "everybody for themselves" society, its welcoming to
know that
in this country, there
is still a place where people can relax and take their time.
Nobody
is in a race, and the world can
wait. There are only a few things that actually merit the stress
and anxiety that most people put on
everyday tasks. Californians, in general, realize this.
THE CITY
Where else can you go skiing, and surfing in the same day, other
than southern california.
Located in sunny Los Angelas, USC is only a short drive away from both
the beach, and
many popular ski resorts. LA offers an incredible variety of
entertainment options. No
matter what interests you, you will
find it in Los Angelas. If it is rock music, you can listen
to new up and coming bands at some of the first places that the
doors played in LA.
If you would rather listen to bands that are already established, look
up the grocery
list
of bands playing at the staples center. From music to comedy
clubs, LA has it all.
The climate is like no
other in so-cal. Sunny in the summer, and pleasant winter.
LA is a big city,
but it still manages to keep its own
individuality. Unlike metropolises such as New York,
Boston, and Chicago, LA is not a concrete jungle, but a big city in the
middle of paradise.
THE
SCHOOL
USC is routinely ranked in the top fifty medical schools by the
'US NEWS' magazine. It is
mostly known for its primary care education, and is not a very big
research university.
USC is a private school, making it easier for non California residents
to get in, however,
the majority of USC medical students are California residents. I
really like this school, and think
that anyone interested in medecine should definately look into this
school.
