[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Harvard, in a second, no question.  A single vocational major won't be assured to define, nor economically protect, your DC.  And UCB might open a few job doors, but Harvard will open many more.

This so called "Vocational Major" produced dozens of billionaires and thousands of multi-millionaires in relatively short period of time. Quants are taking over the "Wall Street" and patent law is dominating the top firms! You should be careful about dismissing this "vocation".[/quote]

Quants blew up economy with synthetic CDO etc, another crisis and Wall Street will have regulators all over them. Most of the 'value' of this tech is in very pedestrian technology, the money is being made in a potential VC bubble, and maybe some real viable businesses, but most will implode b/c not sustainable. people will not pay the real costs for things like instacart or maybe even uber if they ever have to carry legal wages and insurance.

So going to Harverd, which had a better business school will give OP kid best chance in the industry.

UCs in general have accepting more and more students and have had real funding issues.

Just b/c Berkeley is in California, it is not Stanford.

And I love Berkeley but Harvard will give your kid lots of options esp if any chance would switch fields. [/quote]
