UCB undecided vs WashU Olin

I've had this question for a bit, and honestly, I can't decide between the two. I've weighed my options but have yet to visit tour both schools. As the college admissions season for the c/o of 2030 has just wrapped up, I felt like I should ask around here for some opinions. (Money isn't an Issue for either school)

I was admitted directly to WashU Olin for Business with an emphasis in Management.
I was also admitted to UC Berkeley undecided, hoping to go into Econ.

I'm a CA native and definitely prefer it here compared to what I've heard about the Midwest,
but from what I've heard, the cultures are very opposite, with Berk being competitive and cutthroat, whereas WashU is as collaborative as it can get. (The cutthroatness is a little scary, but I'm up for the challenge.

Essentially, I'm deciding between the little fish in the huge pond (berk) or a good amount of support and handholding at WashU.
