fyi: [/b]USC is no longer a rich kid joke college - tougher admissions standards than U-Va.[/quote]

No. I taught at USC.  It is still very much University of spoiled children.  Very blonde, attractive, nicer cars than faculty and big into the Greek scene.  It is not a Highly Selective student like Ga Tech and UVA.  It's much more difficult to get into the latter two, which are HIghly Selective as opposed to merely Selective.  Also UVA was just named top public by Business Insider for best Public in the nation, so now outstrips UCLA Berkely and Michigan.  No way would I send my kid to USC  (the one in CA).[/quote]While UVA is a good school, all things being equal financially, [b]I would never choose UVA over Berkeley regardless of what Business Insider says.  Berkeley's academic reputation is well-known worldwide.[/quote][/b]

But you would be wrong  Business Insider changed its evaluation system to remove "glamour" factors and to search instead for the University's overal "efficacy".  UVA is now no. 1 And I would trust Business Insider over any mom on this website.  http://www.cavalierdaily.com/article/2016/09/uva-ranked-best-public-college-business-insider[/quote]

And then there are 4 or five more reputable rankings that rank Berkeley as top ten in the world and uva between 80 to 150.[/quote]
