@coolbeans123, I think you have to look at the bigger picture with UCB and Yale, as they are very different schools. Berkeley EECS is likely stronger than Yale, but I don’t know how they deal with changes of major. The only thing I can definitely tell you is that the weather would be MUCH better at Berkeley than Yale. With Yale you may have a higher powered alumni network. Tough call, as they are both obviously awesome schools.
