[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind these are not necessarily undergraduate rankings. They weigh graduate programs and research very highly. Hence schools like Berkeley and U Washington compete very well compared to their comparative undergraduate prestige in the US.[/quote]

Berkeley is top 10 in Forbes, WSJ, QS and Top 20 in USNews. It consistently has programs in top 5 in almost every subject. It is a large state school and still manages to do remarkably well in almost all rankings.[/quote]

PP, I agree, I’m not trying to slander Cal. As an institution it’s T10 in the country, I just think the undergrad program is a tick below its graduate programs.[/quote]

Multiple ticks below.  The system is set up to prioritize research and graduate programs.  [/quote]

Said by someone who apparently doesn’t understand that UC undergraduate students tend to LOVE their experience, whether it’s UCLA, Berkeley, right on down to UCSC and even UC Merced.

Maybe you would be better served by focusing on self-reported student experience, instead of that post you saw one time by a purported TA who described lectures with 8,000 - 9,000 students and impacted programs that required students to burn 18-20 years to register for the classes necessary to graduate from the #1 public system in the world.[/quote]
