When I said SDSU, I was using it to reference public school vs private school. I didn’t mean SDSU specifically. UC are only ~$6500/year more than CSU. It’s perfectly fine to go to UC vs CSU. It’s the road well traveled. CSU route is definitely less traveled, which is why you don’t see too many CSU students applying to medical school. Don’t take me saying SDSU so literal. But if one chose the road less travel does not automatically mean they’re less likely to to get in. It just mean they’ve chosen a path that most did not.
