The point is, at this level, it's more about the student

not about the school.

If the student is equally good, Brown can send the student wherever UCB can send, and probably even more options (beyond STEM).  Brown sends far higher percentage of graduates to top medical, law and business schools than UCB (for example, medical school admission rate at Brown is ~85%, at UCB is 50-55%; national average is ~40%).

The best UCB students (at pretty much HYPSM level) are likely better than the best Brown students.

However, the average UCB student is lower than average Brown student.

There is like 150-200 points difference for average SAT. That does not mean everything but it does mean something

所有跟帖： 

• 如果将来读医法商，当然选brown, 但是本科学数学的绝大多数不读医法商。另外UCB SAT分低的学生是文科生，不是数学生。 -swj2000- ♀ (202 bytes) () 04/26/2017 postreply 14:34:33
