random2001 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Now that I've got into a few schools after applying to way too many, it has really come down to UCSB vs Duke (only two that have offered me money). It seems like from a purely ranking perspective UCSB is better, but does that really make it a better choice (or does it even matter)? Any opinions on the two schools?

TulipOHare Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 It seems like from a purely ranking perspective UCSB is better, but does that really make it a better choice (or does it even matter)? No, and no. I have never seen any "ranking" scheme for grad schools that provides any useful information whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike76 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Duke is a small school.... not many options... Its only strong point is medicine ... and anything that is medicine related will be good.. Not sure about UCSB.. but living cost at Durham is cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
