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.

+1. Will never understand the Berkeley hate on this forum. It is a strong school across the board.

I think it’s the top 27, but it’s divisible by 3 and 3 is the magic number. Yes, it is.

Any School House Rock fans in the house?!?

It’s Berkeley light. It has academic excellence across all disciplines. The question should be; why isn’t it ranked higher at USNWR? [/quote

Carried by grad programs. Lower quality students, less resources (hence lower graduation rates, larger class sizes), and research focused faculty. Test blind at Berkeley as well - a joke.
