What I tell people is that while the name is great, you also have to realize that sometimes it’s not all about the name. (If that makes sense). What I’m trying to say is while Berkeley is great and almost everyone’s dream school, can you picture yourself living there for the next four years? Can you survive in such a rigorous and competitive atmosphere?You have to realize that you’re going to school for yourself and not for anyone else. If you don’t find yourself a perfect fit for Berkeley, it’s fine. Attend another school you’re more interested in. There’s always grad school to go to Berkeley (or Davis). If you don’t like the campus, you’re not going to enjoy college (to a certain extent). Remember, college is what you make it of it. Yeah, grades matter in terms of you gotta pass your classes to graduate but also keep in mind that you can graduate from Berkeley and not be able to find a job. What matters is the people you meet and the connections you make while you’re at college.
