[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Berkeley is the best school of the Cal, UCLA, Vandy, WashU group. 
The others I think are personal preference. I'd probably put Vandy 2nd, then UCLA, then WashU.[/quote]

I would much rather go private than public unless perhaps in state. [/quote]

Why? It isn't like Vandy and WashU are undergrad-first liberal arts colleges.[/quote]

Berkeley is known for large classes, not just in intro classes but also in popular majors. It is also very competitive with grade deflation. Would pick any of the privates that you mentioned over Berkeley esp as oos resident.[/quote]

I always laugh when posters just make shit up that is easily proven false by a quick Google search. The average GPA at Berkeley even for hard science majors is over a 3.5. That is hardly grade deflation.

My kid graduated from Berkeley recently and there is grade deflation there.[/quote]

Ha ha all that means is that your kid performed below average.  The numbers speak for themselves. [/quote]

There were many other kids complaining of lack of grade inflation at Berkeley when my kid attended. [/quote]
