<p>Thanks for all suggestions along with lots of data.</p>
<p>One question about the faculty to student ratio published by the schools. While a large school might have a 13/1 ratio, isn’t it still possible that some of the classes (especially freshmen) have basic courses with several hundred students in one class? I know from the Berkeley tour, that it is true there. How many such large classes does one have to endure before class sizes come down to a level where interaction is feasible?</p>
