Barnard Young Women's Leadership Institute or Brown BELL?

<p>I can only pick one because I’m doing research this summer, but my partner is letting me “take a week off” since she’s going on vacation at some point. The BELL class would be the Sustainable Development one. I know it’s two weeks, but it’s so early in the summer that the first week probably wouldn’t be a big deal. So basically, from your experiences which is better? This is also assuming I get into both. Is one more competitive than the other? I know the Brown Precollege isn’t competitive AT ALL but I don’t know about their other programs or the Barnard one.</p>
