Followed hehe ~

Hafu Guo I’d love to see University of Alberta next!!

i love this channel

Just like my soul

😆

You’re correct ✅

check

Wow all of those are awesome suggestions! Thanks Tian tian 😉

I'd add Chicago vs. Northwestern

All agreed but I think it might be more interesting to compare USC to NYU rather than compare UCLA to USC.

@@user-tn7qj7mj2l Vanderbilt vs Duke Emory vs Rice? Idk about this one but two top colleges from the south

Crimzin agreed. I think university comparison should be made based on its similarities and differences. The major similarities should be location, university ranking, etc. After these factors are met, differences can be evaluated.

YAY!!! Which university did you end up choosing?

That’s so amazing to hear! What do you like most about these videos?

Hahahah I got you 😉

Mary Del Angel why ?

Hell yeah

Mary Del Angel why do y’all always lie y’all know you hate the weather there 😩 and it’s so dangerous near there, even just the city hall is dangerous

ClashOfClans but I’m not lying ?? It’s also not dangerous. I’ve been fortunate enough that nothing has ever happened to me there and I’ve been able to walk freely with no issues. Plus, living so close to LA, I’m used to the crowd that surrounds Berkeley. I hate hot weather meaning I love cold weather. During this year, very rarely did I get a day where I hated the weather. It was beautiful almost every single day where I took advantage of it by sitting on the glade. Different people like different things! I believe that the individual can make their experience either good or bad.

Mary Del Angel isn’t it expensive there. I’m worried about finding housing. I hear people share 5 people with one bathroom sometimes just because of the cost

False. My degree didn’t say that and ucsf isn’t affiliated with Berkeley at the present time

Why would you make this up? Berkeley doesn’t have medical school.

Hahahah ❤️❤️❤️

@spinninggorb . . . I've love to get in a debate with you; provide adequate support and I'll answer you within the next few days. Go!

@spinningorb . . . Quit playing computer games and try to provide support in why Berkeley is better!

@@robjohnston366 I have far more important things to do than play computer games. UCLA is a fantastic school, one of the best. But when it is deemed one of the six elite global brands like Cal (along with Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Oxford, Cambridge), get back to me. Cal has been in the Elite 6 for 5 years running. Times Higher Education asked top academics the world over what universities were the most respected in scholarship and academics. UCLA was No. 9.

@@spinningorb Cal and UCLA are never up with the elites in terms of undergraduate education.

That’s trueee but it’s colder in Berkeley than LA 😜😜

Hafu Go the cold never bothered me anywaay🤣

No way. UCLA has nicer campus and a much better neighborhood. Plus LA is an Alpha City and SF is a Beta City.

I would never go to San Francisco, such a horrible city.

@@hafu wear a Berkeley hoodie 😂

hahaha that’s hilarious

What were your stats and extracurriculars

Keenen Brackett come to Berkeley!! I was also accepted to both and I don’t regret my choice at all!

Vanessa Mendoza thanks for the advice !!!

where u study now?

UCLA CS or UC Berkeley L&S CS?

Same here, I have toured UCLA and I will say their campus is gorgeous. I will be visiting Berkeley and hope the same could be said about their campus

Good point

Raymond Montes Hahahaha I love this so much

I don't see Harvard-ium either. Your point?

Spring Day Harvard is completely different type of university to UCLA and uc Berkeley

@@springday5679 the thesis here is "which one is better, Cal and UCLA?"

OOOOOO DRAMA

This is the kind of sweeping generality that UC Berkeley students resort to in comparison between the two universities. Additionally, Berkeley students will state the following: - UC Berkeley students have significantly better stats (grades and test scores). “Berkeley is a billion times harder to get into.” As recent as seven years ago, there would have been a decent-sized gulf between the qualifications between the two universities’ students, but the gap is closing readily, because in the last 10 years to now, UCLA has raised its freshman-class gpa and test scores significantly. UCLA is actually harder to which to gain entry now in the admissions process, but for those who enroll, Berkeley with a tad better yield, has a bit higher test scores, but UCLA has a little higher grades as its students come in with a bit more advanced-placement courses. - “UC Berkeley has the way better Engineering and Computer Science programs.” Berkeley’s E&CS certainly has a higher ranking based on faculty publications and research, but UCLA’s is rising fast and is better funded. UCLA late last year received a $100m donation from the namesake of the Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science, and because of this and other funding, its engineering programs are climbing the rankings. The University is currently hiring 100 additional Engineering faculty and is looking to increase its undergrad E&CS programs to greater than 5,000 from its current ~ 4,000, and thereby become more STEM oriented. The grades and test scores of incoming UCLA E&CS students are every bit as ascended as Berkeley’s and may be a bit higher because UCLA up to now has had an even more restrictive enrollment process in E&CS. And UCLA is definitely closing the gap between those who choose between the two universities for these programs. Your Berkeley representative said at 9:40, that there were numerous Berkeley-student interns at the Bay tech concerns based on his experience, “but only one or maybe two from UCLA.” If he did his internship during the school year, this would be understandable. But if one looks on social media, there doesn’t appear to be a dearth of UCLA E&CS interns at the Bay tech-companies during the summer, say, when they’re back home (also is as well understandable), and I’m sure that with its stepped-up image and high-quality E&CS students, it will lead to a lot more, but it has definitely appreciated in the number of gained internships at the techs, for certain. As far as Berkeley and UCLA for studying business as undergrads, certainly Berkeley Haas is outstanding - it’s considered the best undergrad business school in the country. UCLA’s Anderson GSM offers courses for undergrads, but it doesn’t offer an undergrad Business Administration degree as Haas does, at which Berkeley undergrads apply prior to their junior years. UCLA has Business Economics, in which one does the same in the application process, and it is highly selective also, but it isn’t as tough to gain entry as Haas. Both have outstanding consulting and investment-banking clubs, with UCLA stepping up its clubs and the resultant students’ internships more recently. Both universities produce its share of attorneys. UCLA leads in the state of California for most licensed attorneys by a decent amount over Berkeley, but both lead by an extremely large amount over the third ranked university, USC, by a good 2-3 times. UCLA does produce more MDs: in 2018 over 550 UCLA baccalaureates enrolled in medical school; for Berkeley it was greater than 350. UCLA produces a lot more dentists and pharmacists as is evident. But Berkeley produces more science researchers and PhDs in a wider array of fields: humanities, social sciences, as well as physical and life sciences. The bottom line, though, is both are outstanding universities, and there are Berkeley kids and UCLA kids. UCLA students are undoubtedly more sociable, but I don’t think Berkeley’s are more studious if that makes sense. As a UCLA student would say, “Study hard, play hard.” (I’m going to have to edit out the double spacing between my paragraphs, which youtube comments places in my comments.)

@@robjohnston366 I went to MIT. I have never attended Berkeley, but I would not have minded it if I went there. But I will never go to a school like UCLA if I were super smart and I can get into a more superior school like Berkeley, the Ivies, Stanford or MIT. UCLA is good. But it obviously isn't Berkeley's league.

@@robjohnston366 UCLA vs USC are matches, neck-and-neck.

@@rotneder2814 , you are, of course, entitled to your opinion, but if you didn’t attend either university, you’re probably missing out - say, because of a lack of interest -- on the things to which you can probably relate as an MIT graduate that are occurring at UCLA. I can’t speak for Berkeley - I’m sure they’re incorporating many of the same things, but what UCLA is doing to bring informatics into fields like the social and life sciences, and even humanities, is excellent. The thing UCLA is trying to do in this age of information, is, to get persons who have had no desire to study coding and data structures to at least take an elemental course in it, short of requiring it, and also to open up Computer Science as a specialization to a wide array of majors (read: to those who aren’t accepted into the major). UCLA has created a separate set of CS courses that are pretty much available to all - there are various majors and minors of course that are CS-related and are thereby excluded: majors in Mathematics of Computation, Statistics, Data Theory (since DT is a major, UCLA wanted to incorporate more theory into its perusal instead of straight Data Science); minors in Bioinformatics, Digital Humanities, and Geographic Information Systems and Technology. UCLA also has an excellent major in Linguistics and CS. And good for you that you feel impelled to express your opinion so decidedly. But I believe that the originating-campus-of-the-state-of-California, flagship argument shouldn’t apply, because to the benefit of the state to the nation and undoubtedly the world - as seen by the popularity of both in the other forty-nine states and all over the globe -- there are two world-class public institutions in this state (… and the other seven UCs aren’t slouches either). And the great thing is that Berkeley and UCLA are completely different: semester (three terms, Hafu) v. quarter (also called “trimester” if one excludes summer); social life; on-campus living; food; weather; etc. Sorry for the quasi-thesis, take care.

hahahah did you see your cameo btw?

@@hafu I first watched (listened to) the video on the car, so I missed it! But I watched it again and saw it this time. Adding in some of that watch time #KZfaqAlgorithm haha

Yay!! You're the best

“Finally!! This slacker hafu only putting out 1 video per week...”

Just want to note that UC Berkeley is arguably the most politically charged school in the country

Berkeley is definitely the way to go! Berkeley has tons of advocacy coalitions, student clubs, and even its own Human Rights center!

@@dez-m does it have a nursing program

Cal is much Better Academically than Ucla...Ucla is the Cal Extension Campus- LA Chapter or Westwood High.

⁠@@m.pitt765you’re just making stuff up. Not cool.

Sorry to break it to you but on a global scale ucla is better than cal

@@airsama not really true.. look at the global rankings lol.. cal is #4

Same here. I prefer UCLA, but got into cal. Not sure what I'm going to do lol.. Maybe I'll get off the waitlist but that's a stretch.

thing changed recently. UCLA is taking ahead now.

Truly! I chose Berkeley: been my dream school ever since! A lot of love to UCLA and the other UC's! Hope we can collaborate soon after this crisis

That's actually an amazing idea Alex!! Thanks :D

Hafu Go same with law schools specifically the top 14

Yes but we're not dwelling in the past now are we? UCLA all the way

asiansilencer UC Berkeley is consistently ranked as one of the top 5 universities in USNEWS Global University Ranking while it is underestimated in the National University Ranking. UCLA is absolutely not comparable to UCBerkeley in most of fields, but UCLA is still a very good school.

@@user-tn7qj7mj2l That ranking is based almost entirely on PHD programs and research output, a criterion in which Berkeley wipes the floor with UCLA. For undergraduates and some medical grad students, UCLA is the better choice.

Bionic Potato UCLA only became better on national ranking 2 years ago, and as you said, ranking is biased and people all know that UCLA paid for a higher ranking - would you believe UCLA could be truthfully ranked 18 last year and 20 this year? It is true UCLA is better on medicine, but UCB’s Business, Law, Engineering and some other major schools are a lot better than UCLA. UCLA is not top for most of the fields that it practices in but UCB is.

@@user-tn7qj7mj2l UCLA is ABSOLUTELY comparable if not better than Berkeley in most fields. Berkeley may be better in some while UCLA is better than other. The national rankings are for UNDERGRADUATE education. The top 5 rankings you are referring to mainly pertains to grad school. Berkeley has over 70 years on UCLA but UCLA is giving Berkeley a run for its money. ucla is in the top 10 and I won't be when it catches up to Berkeley in MLK most graduate rankings. With that being said, this video is talking about undergrad education, and in that regard UCLA beats Berkeley on almost every count.

Far better choice? Wrong. Both are the same for job opportunities

@Sudhir Kakar really cuz im from the Yay and i don't see any bruin grads working right now and for the past 8 years in palo alto . Also being in health care i see maybe two bruin alums in our residency programs about every 5 or 6 years. so kinda basic.

Sudhir Kakar and you sound like an unemployed loser who wishes he could get into a UC but got denied. Tech sales lemme guess you work for boost mobile. Management is for people who can’t hustle well enough to own their own business. Keep trolling fool

Sudhir Kakar You are such a frickin grouch man. Just live up to the fact that UCLA is better. Just because you have a sibling that goes to UCB doesn't make it better. I live halfway around the world and know LA to be better than UCB. Not to mention, casual racism too, get a hold of yourself dummy

Sudhir Kakar No racism huh? How about I tell you to shut up and go pray to your beghwan

lmfaooo the competition in this comments section is real haha

Univ. 4 Children Lacking Ambition (UCLA) Go Cal Beat the Cal Extension Campus-of LA or. Westwood High.😂

@@m.pitt765 And so the story goes... "the student has become the master!" UCLA #1 look it up. Go Bruins!

Good suggestion Hussein! I’ll add that to my list of videos to make

Because it’s so cold over there right now 😂

Hafu Guo I’d agree on that. Perhaps when it gets a little warmer. 😂

Because Canada is boring and all schools look the same and not a global scale school

really? It was the opposite for me! UCLA offered more FA and Cal only offered more work study. I chose UCLA

@@jackm2377 i guess it depends which school likes what students best? It’s really interesting!

@@hannahyost3721 possibly. However I don’t think one should chose a school on the best FA. UCLA technically offers more aid as a percent of the total price of college. I did get 1000$ more in work study from Cal.... but the dorms are 8-15k more lol . I honestly think they are both great schools, and if I was going to do engineering or computer science Cal would’ve been the way to go, but for other majors I think they are equal. At a grad level Cal is definitely better, but at an undergrad UCLA invests more money in their students and access to resources. I really wanna go to grad school at Berk or SF so I chose UCLA to experience something different

@@jackm2377 i see what you mean! I think you made the best decision for yourself, and I hope you get into the grad programs you want!

Hey I have the same issue UCLA has always been my dream school and now im so confused because academics for stem programs is better at cal but I’ve really wanted to go to ucla. Can you please give me suggestions 😭

@@shrustimehta8948 Dude I am in the same dilemma. Got into Berkeley EECS early and got into UCLA CSE. Though to be fair I haven't visited cal yet, I will be, but I already have a strong impression of UCLA (closer to home, i actually find to be a pro)

Yeah, extremely wise choice. Haas School is superior to UCLA because they have no proper business program.

3A Berkhout i live around Berkeley and it is definitely not unsafe. You’d be living in a “college city” where literally everyone goes to Berkeley. People tend to say it’s unsafe because of the “hipster” vibe but that’s just the city of Berkeley. LA is definitely more fun activities wise but academics ucb all the way
