<p>Hi guys</p>

<p>I have to decide between SCS at CMU and EECS at UC Berkeley. With May 1st looming, I have to choose one quickly. So I'd be grateful if you guys could answer a few questions.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>How much better is the CS program at SCS as compared to EECS at Berkeley?</p></li>
<li><p>Is the width of courses available at CMU much larger than that at Cal?</p></li>
<li><p>How much difference does the larger class size at Cal make?</p></li>
<li><p>Does the location of CMU pose a significant obstacle to entrepreneurship?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Money and weather do not really matter to me. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I think the programs are very similar in quality, both excellent. If I were you, I would go to Berkeley for the international prestige.</p>

<p>I have to add that I’m an international student.</p>

<p>Both schools are great with fantastic opportunities. Go to whichever school you feel you’d fit in better.</p>
