编辑推荐Amazon.com ReviewWhy sort through the chaff when you know you want wheat? This guide provides instructive profiles (about 10 to 16 pages per college) for 52 of America's most competitive institutions of higher education, from Amherst to Yale, including information about admissions requirements and academic life, as well as financial aid and social life. There are insights written by recent undergrads about what to expect in terms of work load and potential adjustments, and there are sections on your lodging options, extracurricular activities, graduation requirements, and special programs, as well. In addition to the profiles, which are written with candor and geared toward the concerns an inquisitive junior, senior, or parent might have, there's a useful chapter on application strategies (with essential suggestions on the application essay), a "Most Competitive Comparison" (featuring a bottom-line chart that compares numbers of applicants, numbers accepted, how many enrolled, gender ratio, SAT I scores, and costs), a "College Summaries" chapter encapsulating each college's history, tone, and unique attributes, and an index that lists the schools by state. It's an excellent guide to the country's best. --Stephanie Gold--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. |
