<p>World's</a> Best Colleges and Universities: Top 200 - US News and World Report</p>
<p>30 University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) </p>
<p>36 University of California, Berkeley
United States </p>
<p>Undergrad World ranking doesnt lie, right???</p>
<p>UCLA could be more popular to asian countries than UCB because Los Angeles is the world trade center. Foreign parents probably want their children to stay in LA to get familiar with the LA business community.</p>
<p>wow UCLA rocks! best UC!</p>
<p>Actually Berkeley is more famous in Asia because of its engineering school...</p>
<p>Apparently the US doesn't agree with the world.</p>

<p>^ nor do the public rankings or any other rankings.</p>
<p>Torrancecali/Premed4life are latching on to this one single world-based ranking when all the others show Cal is better. It is rather pitiful.</p>

<p>I am not saying that UCLA has better business program than Haas. I am guessing that asian business people wants to have some people in LA to make business connections. Haas excellence in business may not have anything to do with asian business people because they don't use US business models. It's the same reason for other asian students to go to USC. Most items on your shopping list now probably go through LA ports.</p>
<p>There are more Asian in NorCal, especially true of South Asians but of all Asians in general nonetheless.</p>
<p>I think UCLA is better than Cal because I go to UCLA and I rock.</p>
<p>They are both great schools, both equal, but the "equal" part is internationally very high, but a little different, depending on the major.</p>
<p>As a proud UCLA alum, with a son at Cal, I honestly appreciate both. I give kudos to Cal for many reasons, from their terrific Jeff Tedford and Bears Football to the outstanding business program at Haas to their many incredible programs and majors, including one of the few Forestry & Natural Resource majors offered. Cal is, in my opinion, quirkier than UCLA, and its students seem a little more unique.</p>
<p>I give kudos to UCLA also. First my husband and I went there and we met there. It's basketball team is fabulous, thank you John Wooden (and yes, I was there when he was there). North and South campus have programs that are equally impressive. While I hear that the Cal English Lit program is the best, I will argue the point. As an English major I had amazing professors who fought with me to challenge me in my major. I remain friends with the few that are still alive. I remember fondly those who are no longer with us, but who made a huge dent in who I am now.</p>
<p>I guess the real question is not which is "better", but rather what you expect to get out of a university -- for me, it was, as Tennyson wrote: to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. For that, UCLA, thank you!</p>

<p>Since when do rankings matter in the first place? If you ask me, your logic is stupid. Anyways, I have no relation to either school and I'd rather go to UCLA, so QFT.</p>
<p>Great, now I can show my parents so they'll stop pestering me about not getting into Berk.</p>

<p>...:confused:</p>
<p>This list is obviously flawed. UMich over UCLA and Berkeley? C'mon</p>
<p>um actually UMich is like the #1 public university in America...</p>
<p>and also...im really sick and tired of hearing about these rankings...go to the school you fit into...when you grow older you will honestly realize that rankings do not matter at all. enjoy your undergrad experience...if you really care about rankings that much, then make it count for your graduate education. it really is about the overall experience...and the best match for YOURSELF</p>
