"UC Berkeley is known as a hard STEM school" Berkeley is the only University to have a top 10 US ranking for every department. Berkeley is elite at everything, not just stem. Languages, literature, philosophy, business, law, social sciences. . . Not only that, but a major thing that makes Berkeley distinct is the social and political culture. I'd recommend Reed in that regard.

NC State is an excellent engineering school with a lot of sports culture and a city campus. They're definitely one to consider, and they are also in a consortium with UNC and Duke where they all share resources. As for Wake Forest, I actually toured Wake Forest and Duke and I definitely preferred Wake. The academics are just as good, and you don't get a slit-your-throat vibe. Wake also has a great study abroad program, so that's another thing to consider as well. TL;DR NC State is good for engineering, Wake Forest and Duke are basically the same academically

If that's your thing tho, you will have an amazing experience since greek life is HUGE in the south.
