<p>I heard that the princeton graduate college is not that good at all. It's only the undergraduate college thats the best in the country. Is this true?</p>
<p>I'm guessing the strength of the graduate school would depend on which specific department you are talking about. Some departments may be very strong, while others may be good, but not the best for that field.</p>
<p>Of course you're 100% correct. Everything about Princeton's graduate school is just awful. And everything about the college is flawless.</p>
<p>No room for argument or doubt. Your source of information is amazing.</p>
<p>Yeah right. C'mon!</p>
<p>Well I mean also the Princeton graduate school is not in the top 10 for business or medicine or anything..It is not prestigous. Seriously I didn't find this fact in my butt..lol</p>
<p>lol yea princeton medical school is just terrible. so is its business school.do a little more research there buddy.</p>
<p>Princeton does not have a business or a medical school. You might want to do a little more research before you make any statements about the strength of Princeton's graduate programs, which are highly regarded.</p>
<p>Considering Princeton doesn't seem to have a business or medical school...</p>
<p>Edit: cross posted with beefs and midatlmom</p>
<p>"Seriously I didn't find this fact in my butt"</p>
<p>Hmmm then I'd hate to think from where your factoid DID emerge! Eiewwww!</p>
<p>Princeton's law school, dental school, and veterinary school are really crummy too.</p>
<p>In fact, I heard from a little birdie that the Princeton Graduate School massacres puppies and kittens at night, when no-one is watching!</p>
<p>you guys are mean.
lol but you're right the reason princeton's business and medical schools aren't on rated as the top in the nation is because they don't exist. didn't know that but now i do. ha</p>
<p>Google is your friend</p>
<p>lmao .</p>

<p>Yeah, but at least Princeton has a better medical school than does MIT or Berkeley. Princeton's business school is clearly better than Caltech's. Princeton's law school is better than Brown's or Dartmouth's.</p>
<p>^sakky, great one!</p>
<p>this is one of the stupidest posts on CC I've ever seen.</p>
<p>I think Princeton's trying to deceive people like you with its amazing undergrad program that they'll also have great law, med, and biz schools...You basically get one chance at Princeton- the freshman admissions! (Unless you want to for a PhD even so for my field it's just okay and it's just about impossible anyway)</p>
<p>I hear transferring amoung Princeton's grad schools is pretty easy. If you don't like their Vet school Profs, you can transfer into thier PhD program in enology. :D</p>
<p>To the OP,
Trying to inject a serious note here, although this has been fun to read, I don't know if the OP is international and has only heard of Ivy League schools. It has been said so many ways, the Ivy League started as an athletic league. The undergraduate colleges of the Ivy League are generally considered to be excellent colleges, some better than others, and there are non-Ivy league undergraduate colleges also considered to be "better" at educating undergraduates than a number of the Ivy league colleges. However, when it comes to graduate school admissions of any kind, undergraduate reputations have NO BEARING. You must investigate much more than the Ivy League when you are looking at Ph.D., law, business, med and veterinary programs. In some cases, an Ivy League school may be the "best" in that area, but in many cases, that is not true.</p>

<p>Well, I don't know that it has NO bearing. I have to believe that some undergraduate schools can help you to get into some grad schools, particularly when we're talking about going back to same school you were at as an undergrad. Many grad programs provide strong 'homefield advantage' to their own undergrads, and certain ones are exclusive to their own undergrads. </p>
<p>For example, the MEng EECS program at MIT is specifically reserved for former MIT EECS undergrads. By rule, nobody else can get in. {Heck, even if you were an MIT undergrad but didn't major in EECS, you can't get in.}</p>
