<p>Whoa hold on^^, Cornell and Berkeley are not equivalent. It is SO much harder to get into cornell than it is to berkely, i live on the east coast and people get into berkley but not into cornell, berkelies not that hard to get into. Id say NYU and Berkeley are equivalent. Mabey its because i live on the east coast, and cornell berkley acceptance is reversed on the west coast? idk but nyu definatly has business, dance, and nuero-science/chemistry to hold it up.</p>
