For the childish poster, it is also the risk for entire US since you will eat the vegatables of Cal and if you look at http://www.radiationnetwork.com/ you will see that it is not the risk of Cal. Moreover, your envy just demonstrates how you have not deserved Stanford and at this point you should just congratulate Stanford acceptees.

I am considering accepting Stanford EE MS/PhD program but I have some doubts about quals and courseqork of Stanford. For the quals, I have read it has low pass rate of %50, there are a wide range of subjects and it might be insignificant if you have a professor supporting you. Is anyone have more information about the quals, for instance old qual exam questions would be much valuable. About the coursework of Stanford EE, I have heard that you should take around 15 courses during MS and 10 more during PhD. Is it true and comparing to other universities is it a really heavy load or beneficial?

I totally agree with Spunk. At this point, you might consider some non-academic factors also.
