You're not wrong... Even though UCLA may be ranked 23rd while UCB is ranked 3rd in undergraduate engineering, the difference in overall quality of undergraduate education between the top 5 and top 25 engineering schools isn't significant. Furthermore, all majors in both schools are ABET accredited; you'll learn the same core topics for your major at both schools.

By the way, can you send me a list to those rankings you referred to?
It's been a while since I've seen anyone post undergraduate engineering rankings.
