<p>Berkeley beats cornell internationally, it is very highly regarded in India and China, they probably see it on par with HYPSM</p>
<p>Besides international rep, i would still choose berkeley, engineers get job offers from silicon valley pretty quickly because its close by, and berkeley is consistently ranked in the top 1/2 for most disciplines in engineering on USNWR…you also have awesome research opportunities with the lawrence lab</p>
<p>berkeley also has better weather and less suicides</p>
<p>cornell is indeed an excellent ivy league school, but doesn’t even come close to berkeley’s international reputation</p>
