UCB ChemE vs lower tier ChemE program

<p>I am an out of state transfer from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (ranked #9 in undergrad ChemE). Since I am actually a resident of California so I really want to go back because the tuition plays a huge factor. However, I heard someone on other thread saying Berkeley's undergrad chemE is overrated and horrible. Professor don't even care about kids in undergrad, and it's mostly TAs teaching the class. </p>

<p>Also, I really want to go to Berkeley's grad school for ChemE, but someone told me Cal chemical engineering won't accept its graduated seniors to its grad program:(</p>

<p>Should I stay in my current college or go for Cal?</p>
