<p>I'm an admitted student who is considering both Berkeley and UCLA. I'm planning to double major Applied Mathematics and Economics with hopes of being accepted to a Masters in Financial Engineering program for grad school. </p>
<p>I know that Berkeley's program will probably be more difficult. I was wondering how much more difficult it will be and whether the difficulty will hurt me my chances of getting into Financial Engineering(by getting worse grades) or will help me(by coming from a more rigorous program).</p>
<p>Thanks for your help!</p>
