I recently got off the waitlist for UC Berkeley for the data science major, but I’m already committed as an incoming freshman at UT Austin for the SDS major. I don’t want to work/create my own startups, and I’m not very big on the competitive and workaholic culture that comes with tech/stem in California schools. My end goal is working in a stable company (preferably MAANG) and have heard many good things about UT having a good, if not better, pipelines for those companies. I am also going to try to leverage this acceptance to double major or minor in MIS from the McCombs school of business at UT to pad my resume.

Thoughts/Recommendations?
