lol y are u aggressively hammering a guy whos making a case for Berkeley over UCL and whos stating that rankings are bs instead of directing your comments at the dude
I was aggressively hammering the THES rankings through you because to me they are so patently absurd.

and regarding Berkeley's reputation in asia, I have my doubts as to that as an asian living IN asia....i tink all this hooha comes from asians living in cal because thats the school most of them go to
The point of posting the Shanghai rankings had little to do with reputations in Asia. I was expressingly foremostly that, ranked according to its objective standards, Stanford AND Berkeley are rated much higher in that ranking. And the rhyme or reason is there irrespective of whether one agrees or not with their conclusions.

As someone who has lived in Asia for a long time, my perception is different.
