They don't provide any premed class, it's a graduate school.

UCSF is a graduate school only, with programs in medicine, dentistry,nursing and pharmacology. Berkeley or Davis for pre med.

UCSD, UC Berkeley and UCLA all kind of trade off being the top in whatever category, and each year one of them tends to get -swamped- with applications and becomes impossible to get into. All are excellent schools. UCSD's reputation in the bio sciences is stellar, not to say Berkeley is in any way inferior. It's got a reputation down here for being a very very difficult, intense school. If you're just looking at the UC system, Irvine has a phenomenal bio sci program, but has a reputation for getting an enormous number of pre-meds and burning them out like cheap fuel. It's a very hardcore research school that's not easy on undergrads. UC Riverside is a -good- school, but tends to get overshadowed by the others. Also no one in their right mind would want to live in Riverside. Davis is probably as good a bio-sci/premed school as San Diego. Santa Cruz is close behind them. Basically, pick ANY UC school except for Merced. They're all stellar.

UCSF med school is one of the finest med schools in the US.
