<p>sorry, I know I've posted a similar thread for EECS, but it's better to separate the two so that readers will know which major we are referring to. so my question:</p>
<p>who is the average mechanical engineering major at berkeley, bringing into consideration:</p>
<p>a. mean high school GPA, SAT, rank in high school, extracurriculars</p>
<p>b. pre-college research/work experience/internships</p>
<p>c. prior knowledge in ME (courses -like math, science, programming- taken in high school to facilitate understanding in ME, etc...)</p>
<p>d. general intelligence level compared to students in other fields (1. all other engineering majors, 2. all other colleges at berkeley)</p>
