Bowdoin VS. Amherst?

<p>I was admitted by Bowdoin but waitlisted by Amherst, and I was wondering whether I should remain on the waiting list. Could anyone evaluate these two colleges in terms of popularity in the job market, internship opportunities, and academic strengths? </p>

<p>My intended major is sociology+economics, which one offers the better education? Also, I was hoping to pursue a temporary career in the finance industry before going to grad school, so which college can better prepare me for the future? </p>

<p>Thank you so much!</p>

<p>Bowdoin is a fantastic school – Congratulations.</p>

<p>Amherst has a much better reputation.</p>

<p>I would recommend staying on the wait list, but remembering you’re truly in a no-lose situation.</p>
