<p>Your thoughts? especially pre-med?</p>
<p>Well Columbia definitely has the most prestigious name of the three, followed by Brown then Duke.
Duke is hot...yuck.
Brown isn't a real school...yuck.
Columbia wins.</p>
<p>Premed...I love Columbia, but still... Duke wins.
Unless...
you get into Brown's BSMD program, which is sweet.</p>
<p>Brown's PLME would be best. Brown's lack of any curriculum should help that GPA because then you take classes you want to take, rather than taking classes in your weak subjects. Duke is very very good for premed, and the research triangle opportunities should boost that resume as well. However, if you don't get into PLME, you probably wouldn't be at a disadvantage going to Columbia, and it would be best incase you want to switch from premed to business or law.</p>
