Survey Says: Elite 15 Colleges vs. UC Berkeley

Based on parchment.com admitted student choice survey (student pick when receiving admission offers from both schools)

Except for Cornell, JHU and Northwestern, which are on the borderline,  for other 12 private elite schools, student choice is overwhelmingly clear to pick private elite over UC Berkeley.

Note some CA students pick UCB over private elite schools for cost reason. Without that factor, the UCB percentage ratio will be even lower.
