I wish I had known that most of the UC's are looking for math and science based majors, especially engineers. Also, I wish I had known that UCSD was the second best school in the nation to attend for bioengineering.

Which college you choose (ERC, Revelle, etc.) affects your first two years immensely. You'll live in their houses, attend their freshman and sophmore classes, go to their groups, etc. You'll feel closer to them than you do to your school as a whole .Choose wisely! Do some research and see which mission statement you like better as well as which has the better housing (ERC and Muir are wonderful).
