Date: May 17th, 2013 5:47 PM Author: concupiscible hilarious friendly grandma I'd imagine that the undergrad dropoffs are less consistent since people have more diverse interests about which undergrad to go to. For law school, it's more just about the ranking. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2258703&forum_id=2#23218547) |

Date: May 17th, 2013 5:49 PM Author: Mildly autistic hospital mediation I'm a second year PhD student in Harvard Economics, did my undergrad at Berkeley. For readers unfamiliar with the inside-baseball, Berkeley is ranked somewhere in the 3-6 range, while Harvard and MIT duke it out over the 1 and 2 slots.
I was always impressed by the grad students in the Berkeley econ department, but as a group they're just not in the same league as my classmates here. The drop-off in input quality when you leave 02138/9 is pretty steep, and it must be even steeper when you look past the top 6-10. I mean this in the least arrogant way possible.
The consensus is that most of the value-added comes from interacting with your classmates, so the peer effects are dominant. In terms of teaching, I actually found the Berkeley faculty put in more effort, but the courses here are at a higher level. I can't speak to the quality of the advising elsewhere, but the dominance of the top schools self-perpetuates pretty easily. Because 2/3 of the faculty at the top 6 went to Harvard or MIT, any potential advisor I end up with has personal relationships with members of the faculty anywhere I'll be applying for a job. It's a comforting thought. |
