Berkeley was tough, I don't think I've studied that much in my whole life. I can't believe how much time I spent on some classes only to barely pass the class. Ironically, it seemed that the less time I spent on a class, the better I did. The value in going to Berkeley it's so much the book knowledge you get, but the toughness it teaches you and how to solve problems. It's extremely competitive there though you might have been the smartest one in your high school, you'll meets a whole bunch of people just like that in your classes. I can definitately say that I'm a lot better off for making it through my 4 years there.
