MYOS1634,
Many if not most of the good stuff you said about MIT are also available to Berkeley College of Engineering undergrad students. I even heard from a friend that one undergrad EECS student is making 25k/mo as an intern in Silicon Valley. The guy broke a record!
I think you exaggerated it a bit for MIT.
Berkeley, MIT and Stanford – these three – are peer schools for STEM. Among them, neither is much better than the other.
