Berkeley vs Duke

<p>I got into Berkeley Regents and Chancellors and I got into Duke. Im really sold on Berkeley but i want someone to convince me to go to Duke.</p>

<p>you can find nice points about the school in another 'convince me' thread somewhere below, and in other threads as well.</p>

<p>i don't understand though... you definitely sent in your deposit somewhere by now. so why bother?</p>

<p>Where do you want to work later? What do you want to study?</p>

<p>im just making sure that i really want to go to berkeley because it seems everyone thinks duke is really good... and im a bioengineering major at berkeley and im interested in premed.. and duke has a really good medical program so i hear im a little unsure about my decision</p>

<p>Can't go wrong with either school really. Perhaps the Berkeley regents is too good an offer to pass up though?</p>

<p>Regents isn't that good an offer. The money's not that great, the faculty advisor... honestly, all students have that sort of thing at a typical private school.</p>

<p>Duke is a great school for premeds. I think Berkeley is decisively not as strong in this area.</p>

<p>don't second think your decision now, or else you will never concentrate on your studies there. Just start thinking like a golden bear now, go hate stanford, and enjoy the SF skyline.</p>
