<p>harvard has law and yale has medical but what about princeton ??? any replies are appreciated</p>
<p>Since when was law and medicine popular undergraduate majors? Besides everyone knows that Harvard is known for its amazing medical school and Yale for its law school. Regardless, I heard that Princeton's most popular area for majors is within the social sciences and engineering. I could of course be wrong.</p>

<p>If, as you asked in other threads, you're interested in what Princeton is most "famous" for, I think you're grossly oversimplfying what a university is meant to be.</p>
<p>For one thing, Harvard is not "known" simply for its law school and Yale is not "known" simply for its medical school.</p>
<p>Princeton is likewise not simply "known" for one thing or another. Princeton is known as a fantastic university precisely because it is extremely strong in a broad number of areas, not merely one or two.</p>
<p>Perhaps you should give a little more consideration as to what exactly you want to get out of a college before posting rather pointless threads such as this.</p>

<p>Frankly, to reduce a college simply to one "defining" or "outstanding" attribute is to blithely ignore exactly what a university is. You can't just say that Princeton has a "gorgeous campus" or "undergraduate focus" or "amazing philosophy department" and be done with it. Princeton, like every single other school, is much more complex than that. Making a decision about where to go to college on the basis of a gross generalization is silly. Look at the totality of Princeton's strengths and weaknesses, the entirety of its characteristics and offerings, before making a judgment about it.</p>
<p>Extreme generalization in something as important as selecting a college does no one any good.</p>
