As all are out-of-state tuition, Duke is almost no brainer
Admittedly UCB EECS is super in tech job placement, but Duke might offer a more well-rounded experience for undergraduate education.
Duke engineering is small but decent. If your son ever puts in the same level of effort as he would at UCB EECS, he can get to whereever UCB EECS could bring him to. No doubt about that.
Wait a minute ... he may not even end up with engineering ... then Duke has an even stronger case.
I just feel that paying private college cost for stateuniversity - even for mighty schools like Cal,UM or UCLA, is not as appealing as attending a US News top 10 private university.
Duke and EECS both good, depends on what he wants to do next 10
If he wants to be in a business oriented career path, then Duke (Duke is little too white)
EECS if CS Major, UCB EECS is well received by companies for Undergraduate rigorous training,he can meet many peers to partner with in future entrepreneurship. But its a large public school, kids need to work hard
中西部STEM男娃, 专业不确定, 没学医的打算。性格温和随和，不aggerasive
选择：UM Engineering, UCB EECS, Duke Engineering. 公校都是外州学费
这几个学校都没去看过，现在也不可能去访校了。咱们这里见多视广的人比较多，相信有的自己孩子就在这几个学校读书或读过书。可不可以分享一下你所了解的情况和看法。先谢了！
怎么融洽同子女的关系?
·不要监控孩子的电话，尊重其隐私权。
·对孩子的朋友要和蔼可亲，但不要同他们过于亲近。不要侵入他（她）的天地。
·不要在他人面前夸奖孩子，这样会使其尴尬。
·不要在他人面前批评或斥责孩子。如果必须要这样做的话，应该在无人的时候。
·母亲在他人面前要注意服饰。母亲的形象不整洁，孩子会感到羞耻。
·如果你的孩子参加学校的演出，他（她）在舞台上时你不要打手势，这样会令他（她）紧张，甚至出错。
·孩子和你一起坐自己家的车出门时，不要把汽车收音机调到你所喜爱的频道。让孩子挑选电台，但可要求他调低音量。
·在子女需要帮助时要给予帮助，但要注意方法。
·子女在一定的阶段就像需要食品一样需要爱抚，但是爱抚要适可而止，不要在公开场合这样做，更不要在朋友面前这样做。
·不要让你的孩子在外人面前表现他的“本事”，如朗诵、唱歌、跳舞或弹钢琴。如果你为他的本领自豪并希望让人家看到，那就对他提出请求。如果父母坚持让他们在外人面前表现本领，有的孩子会感觉自己像马戏团的猴子。
·不要向他的朋友和亲属讲他的怪癖，尤其不要当他的面前。任何孩子都不愿意别人知道自己的隐私。
·不要让他失去对你的信赖。他向你透露的秘密，你不要告诉别人。你一定要完全尊重他的意愿。
·在他面前不要说谎。他看到自己的父母说谎或弄虚作假，就会感觉不好。例如，父母在某人背后说坏话，而当面又装出热情的样子，孩子就会反感。

俺选UCB
UCB EECS专业不错，不过听说那里学术环境比较严酷，选课也困难。具体是什么情况，难到哪种程度？同学之间的关系怎么样？是以友好合作为主流还是恶性竞争更多？了解的话可不可以多介绍一些情况？谢谢！

您孩子去duke读什么专业？
除非孩子100%要学CS，去EECS。duke说是工程，进去后应该是随便选/试各种专业，毫无限制。花一样的钱，4年的duke life绝不是UCB可以比的。
我家没拿到duke :(
非常感谢您细致列出具体的选择理由！
我不太懂这几个学校的专业水平比较，只从学校的角度考虑。
UCB是个大公校，有些学生不喜欢觉得lost。
Duke教授和学生的互动很多，要拿好成绩，比UCB容易。
UCB的校园挺好，出了校园，人多和破。
性格活跃，能给自己找路子的孩子应该去两个学校都可以。
我家的在UCB。她很喜欢那里，本来还不想回家来。她的一个朋友在Duke，听她说了，那里的supporting 的确好。
另外UCB吃的很差。
您孩子肯定也进了非常好的学校！
那位在duke的同学学什么专业，他or她喜欢那里吗？
娃肯定会高兴吃的好 :-)
想学医的话duke的确是一个很好的选择！
虽然娃还不确定专业，可对于理工娃来说，不知道除了计算机，还有哪个专业就业出路更好。所以我自己觉得试来试去，最后也许还是可能落脚到计算机上。这也是个选择困难的重要原因之一
我平时逛坛子不勤，这里很多信息都没follow, 有时过来溜达溜达，也没弄清楚咱这里的哪个娃进了哪个学校。恭喜成功的兔！能进H的可不是一般的牛蛙！
梦校梦破裂，其它的还不知道想去哪
