Duke or Rice

<p>Which one do you think is better??</p>

<p>This is a horrendous question. For one thing, nobody on these boards knows anything about you. College is more than an education; it’s your world for four years. The only reason I can think of for your asking this question is because you’re wondering where to apply early. If you have to ask this question, you shouldn’t be applying anywhere early.</p>

<p>They’re both excellent schools. Neither one is “better.” They have different cultures, different strengths, different settings, etc. It’s all a matter of fit. What are you looking for? What is your learning style? What type of environment would you prefer? You need to research each and as NYSkins says, figure out where you would prefer to be the next 4 years.</p>

<p>The last two posts offer very good advice. That said, Rice is the best school in the whole world ever. So yeah.</p>

<p>^^^ I agree with Dorian. ^^^</p>
