My opinions on choosing clg over branch

You can downvote if you wish

People live in delusions and focus on outliers and hence take dumb choices like these

....before downvoting me listen to this most people are not socially capable to use those extra opportunities at all so it's always advisable to choose a branch of your choice

...and the propability of those extra "so called opportunities"amounting to something valuable is low even in terms of learning or will be indifferent if you would have choosen the branch of your choice
