[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, at least for STEM, Cal is far ahead. [/quote]

No it's not.

Honestly, Cal undergrad is trash now.  It's a class full of lottery winners.[/quote]

Not really.

If you are not aware, STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. UC Berkeley is:

#1, #3, #4 Chemistry, Physics and Biology
#2 in Computer Science
#3 in Engineering 
#5 in Math

Also 
#2 in Business
#1 in Economics

It’s a solid school on par with HYPSM, at least for STEM, with great internship and job opportunities after graduation. In state tuition for UC Berkeley is 16k, Harvard is 60k. A lot of students in California take community college classes that transfer automatically to UC system. Potentially a student could save ~200k over four years by going to Berkeley. That can be used for grad school, or just start up money in life.

However if Berkeley is not a good fit because it’s a bit of a free for all, it’s perfectly fine to choose something else even if more expensive.
