Math + Comp Sci - which top school?

<p>So i've been accepted to Uchicago, CMU (schools of compsci and science), Yale, Princeton and Caltech. I'd like to study math and computer science. Which of these schools would you guys suggest solely based on that? Now i know there are other subjective factors involved but those are for me to consider, I just want to know objectively how these schools stand.</p>

<p>One thing to take into account is whether you’re emphasizing one of the majors (math or comp-sci), or if they’re both equally important to you. For example, some of the schools you listed are particularly known for one thing over the other (such as CMU for comp sci or Princeton for math). I don’t know enough about the programs you listed to offer any concrete advice about one school over the others, but your emphasis is something to at least take into consideration.</p>

<p>CMU, Caltech, and Princeton are about equal to each other in CS.</p>

<p>You may want to look at the course offerings in CS and math at each school. If you are interested in the areas where CS and math meet, look particularly for CS theory courses and math courses in algebra, number theory, cryptography, and undecidability.</p>
