<p>Yes; for engineering and computer science, I would “break an arm” to go to Berkeley. For everything else, however, Princeton all the way.</p>
<p>You have to consider that I’m international and I currently live in Asia, wherein here, Berkeley is more prestigious than Princeton is.
When I say Berkeley is more prestigious here, I mean Berkeley is more popular, equally as respected, and definitely more respected in many academic areas than Princeton, has wealthier and more active alumni. (for example, the son of the president of the country where I’m currently residing went to Berkeley, as well as many “big time” names here.) I understand such things are different in your area.</p>
