Which school is better? I always wanted to go to Cal, but I heard Berkeley is good too. Which one do you guys think is better?

Berkeley because its the name of the actual city.

Berkeley for sure, Cal sucks

Plus, some might not know which college Cal is ... so go to Berkeley just to be safe.

What's "Cal"? I thought Cal was a nickname for UC Berkeley... Someone please explain.

No, UCB beats both Cal and Berkeley

Go to UCB for 2 years and then transfer to either Cal or Berkeley depending on your major

Berkeley has a good business program. Cal's engineering is pretty good and UCB is good for english majors

While the athletic battles between football players from Cal, Berkeley and UCB might be passionate, for some reason no tickets are sold and few get to watch these. Further, they don't post scores or use refs.

I graduated from UCB, Cal and Berkeley. They are the greatest!

I know a guy who got into Cal, waitlisted at UCB and rejected from Berkeley.

That's not surprising. Berkeley is usually the most selective.

i actually just exploded

missionewokzzz · 04-03-2010, 10:08 PM

Cal is sort of the poor man's Berkeley
