<p>I am planning an undeclared major, interested in psychology and marketing. Both BU and Bates are similar in costs, but that's where their similarities end. Which school is better overall? Which one will better prepare me and give me better chances for a good grad school?</p>
<p>Thanks a lot :)</p>
<p>These two schools are so different in feel, that after you visit you’ll know which one you like better. Small LAC or huge research university. Neither one is “better” for grad school, although some might argue that the intimate setting at Bates will prepare you better for certain grad programs. That said, you’ll do best where you’re happiest.</p>
