<p>I've been accepted into both and my family wants me too go to MIT, mostly because of prestige. I want to know I'll enjoy college more than just a fancy name in my degree. Should I choose Duke or MIT? Why?</p>
<p>Go to CPW at MIT and the admitted students weekend at Duke and then decide. Fit is most important so whichever is the best fit academically and culturally is where you should go.</p>
<p>Both have about the same level of prestige for Biomed and BE. So it is upto you to figure what you like about each school and where you can be for 4 years.</p>
