Anyone Heard About Berklee?

There is a phenomenally wide range of talent at Berklee. Some of the best players (Grammy band winners, for example) are there on full scholarship, in all the top ensembles, and having absolutely unbelievable experiences. On the other hand, there are loads and loads of guitar players and drummers (their two most popular instruments) who would not have been accepted at other music schools.

A lot depends on the drive and ambition (and talent) of the student. There have been some very positive and very negative posts on the school on the music forum.

And yes, housing is a huge problem, although there is a new dorm in the works, to open 2012, I believe.
