Based on Ers background, 我朋友说想比较这四类学校哪个更好：A (Colum, Brown, Duke etc) (All pending besides Duke)
B (Carleton, Midd, Colgate, etc) (All pending)
C (Grinnell, Reed, etc) (Some Pending)
! C5 p  o2 K$ \D Top 5 schs in Canada and Britain (top 5 in their respective countries)
( {( Z# P7 j) Y9 u5 _
IVY还没出结果，我朋友还在犹豫。

- B$ c& z# N3 K$ k; ]我朋友(ers) 的背景是：plans to attend courses in econ, accounting and math; also intend to pursue pre-med (bio and chem) path though ers does not want to go to med sch. Ers acutally want to go to law sch with background in accounting and financial...

虽然，其他几个 (Lafa, FM, etc) 不在一个档次上 as

， 但我朋友说US NEWS 排名并不是最重要的，希望大家从其他角度考虑，比如说：校园环境，工作前景，饮食与住宿条件，Study abord program and personal attention to student and "fit-in".

希望大家能帮我朋友推荐个排名先后顺序根据其背景。谢谢！！！

it's not a ranking consideration~
it's overall "不在一个档次上"
6 c1 }* J$ b( WDUKE has good bio-chem majors, don't know much about their eco/accounting. the only problem with duke is that it's SOUTH. Its fame is not local anyway.

毫无疑问杜克。
5 P" |" q. I! g8 S! f从找工作的角度上讲，杜克比其它那几个学校强出好几个档次。

我被英国的伦敦政经（LSE)录了，有了解它的吗

要是考虑吃住，环境，气候的话全美基本没有能跟Duke比的...Chicago还在下雪的时候Duke的学生可以光着晒太阳。毕业后收入Duke在全美也是一流的

专业不知道, 不做评论
不过我想说一句, 你的朋友现在想学的专业未必是以后也想学的. 就我来说, 从开始到现在专业变了n次, 曾经想读3个major一个minor, 也想过study abroad, etc. 我想学的专业涉及很多领域... 4年的本科, 很难说的 :) 难说以后不变啊, 不要太早给自己定性.
选一个教育好, 气氛好, 机会多, 环境不错, 就业前景好的学校,应该是最好的选择. 我也挺Duke.
( V; W' \7 H: U- C8 G
至于另一个Canada/Britain的top 5, 我觉得和美国不好比, 至少应该说和Duke没法比. 很多朋友在Canada和Britain的都想来美国.
