<p>Sakky, I think that there is a difference in what the average top private and the average top public school might do, I don't think it's as stark as you make it seem (people can get incompletes for some reasons, for instance, I know a few who did). Berkeley isn't monolithically apathetic, but I would agree that it's less caring, less willing to help generally than a top private school.</p>
