I chose Rose because to me she has been one of the most memorable companions so far, and out of these two she seems the most humane...

To me Clara is more like an archetype of a perfect companion: never makes mistakes and always saves the day or at least guides doctor to make the best possible decision... Even her relationship to the doctor is balanced and she seems to be a jack of all trades (except when making soufflés).

I do not deny that Clara has had some of the most interesting episodes I have seen so far but because of her qualities, Clara is more like an necessary plotdevice in these episodes...
