Like Dartmouth, Brown and Cornell over in state Berkeley for stem? Yeah, no way.

Definitely yes. Those ivy schools are miles ahead of Berkeley in prestige. And prestige exists for a (good) reason.


Do you always use the word prestige in every sentence?

Not true, a Berkeley stem degree caries more weight. Yale, Dartmouth and Cornell are in the middle of nowhere. Berkeley is close to Silicon Valley, can get research opportunities at Lawrence Berkeley up the hill etc. Sure the classes are large and harder to get in, less hand holding. If you can’t handle that Berkeley is not a good fit and look elsewhere.


LOL. I think that PP is "prestige-crazy."

Some people can’t get in the true top schools so they instead try to justify their best choice by deluding this micky mouse area is on par with Harvard and that irrelevant aspect is better than Brown blah blah. It’s just copium.


The copium is telling yourself that any of this matters. But I get that you’re about 17 so this is entirely lost on you.

The truth is Berkeley is full of lottery winners who are trash students. They’re definitely not a good fit for Berkeley but they got in regardless. The days when Berkeley cs students ride the Silicon Valley waves will be long gone.


Trash students?

This is a bit too much.


Cost conscious in state residents Is probably a better description. Many of them are top students with this type of background.

Berkeley is a mega-sized public university that has decent research and grad schools however the undergrad experience is quite poor and mainly attracts cost conscious in state residents.

+1 the undergrad at Virginia is probably much better since it isn’t so over-enrolled
