Brown famous majors?

<p>JHU would be sad to hear that it's med school went unrecognized in this thread... wait, it wouldn't care.</p>

<p>Still, I don't really think the prestige-centric question posed by OP is really worthwhile. Especially since it was... nonsensical.</p>

<p>while on the internet not everyone writes with proper grammar and/or spelling. Judging the OP for that is far more stupid than any posts the OP made. I find it difficult to comprehend how some of you did understand what the OP said. I don't know about yale medical... but through reputation Harvard Law is considered the best by people who don't really know, and thats fine because most people don't. Why don't you all stop acting like arrogant assho""" and answer the question? </p>

<p>Brown has a reputable ba/md program called PLME which it is famous for. I don't, however, know much about Brown to give a propre answer.</p>

<p>I have to say the OP is hilarious.</p>

<p>If you check your past posts, she has posted on every Ivy forum. Not only that, she's an incoming sophomore with her "heart set on Yale," and she's writing a book so she can get in.</p>

<p>Hilarious. Absolutely brilliant.</p>

<p>egyptology? lol</p>

<p>Hey, don't laugh. That's my daughter's concentration and Brown is the only school in the Western Hemisphere that has this at the undergraduate level. (Chicago, Penn, and Yale have some ancient near eastern studies majors, but Brown has the best assortment of undergraduate courses on Egypt.) </p>

<p>I think the concentration is famous among those wanting to go into Egyptology, anyway ...</p>

<p>Give me a break 911. Call a spade a spade--when somebody acts stupid, call them stupid. There are dumb questions.</p>

<p>Although it could be argued that improper writing skills have nothing to do with intelligence.</p>

<p>Either way though, I was wondering about this topic. For those of us that don't have the best English skills (from international schools), do ivy leagues have some sort of language center we could attend to catch up to our peers (in the English curriculum or otherwise)?</p>

<p>Don't know about others, but I've never seen anything like that at Brown. Never really researched it, though.</p>

<p>Brown has a Writing Center, where you can take your papers-in-progress and have people help you with your writing. This isn't just for internationals, but it would certainly be helpful for them.</p>

<p>My impression is that most international students at Brown went to high schools were English was the/a language of instruction and therefore don't have a lot of catching up to do, although I could be wrong.</p>

<p>Graduate TA's are another story, espescially for chem or physics ;-)</p>

<p>They do have a department that offers English for students who use English as a second language, although I am unsure if there are consistently courses offered under this title.</p>

<p>oh okay, thanks everyone</p>

<p>wow...the maturity here is overwhelming</p>

<p>To answer your question, which no one actually has, brown is very good in neuroscience, applied math, computer science, cognitive science, creative writing, and may other fields!!</p>

<p>Brown's geology program is among the very best in the nation, especially for undergrad. Marine biology is excellent as well.</p>

<p>i would second that about geology! one of my rugby pals is a bio-geo major. very smart girl...very good program. </p>

<p>yay i love brown</p>
