<p>IBClass06, what is the British version of CC? It looks like something interesting to check out ;)</p>

<p>I wouldn’t dare to say that Yale is a better institution than Cambridge, much less “unequestionably” so.</p>

<p>Yale. Truckloads (literally!) get into Oxbridge from my school every year but only a handful get into Yale - this says something about the selectivity of both schools. Also, with Yale’s much larger endowment, it has the financial muscle to attract better students and faculty. For example, for an international student admitted to both school, he/she will probably attend Yale because there’s no way he/she can afford Cambridge. Both are fantastic schools though.</p>
