<p>Hey Guys,</p>

<p>I still can't believe I got into Berkeley!</p>

<p>It was really on the top of my list. I got rejected from all the 4 ivies but still the joy of being admitted to UCB is more than the rejection regrets!</p>

<p>I have heard a lot about UCB and the fact that it is VERY hard to get into (especially for a guy like me) plus it has a great engineering program.</p>

<p>I have also got into the following:-</p>

<p>1) UCLA
2) Carnegie Mellon
3) UCSD
4) Georgia Tech
5) UIUC
6) Purdue</p>

<p>Have Been reject by Columbia, Dartmouth, Cornell, Upenn, USC, UTAutin, USC etc.</p>

<p>Have been Waitlisted at Washington University St Louis and Duke.</p>

<p>Wanted to know which would you choose and why?
Please feel free to say anything and to the minutest details</p>

<p>I will be visiting 2-4 schools out of these this month.</p>

<p>BTW i'm from New Delhi and an undergraduate Mechanical Engg Applicant!</p>

<p>Thanks Guys</p>

<p>I hate public universities. Since this is only an undergraduate degree, Berkeley and GeorgiaTech aren’t as great. I think I’d be inclined toward Carnegie Mellon.</p>
