<p>philly..best city?nooo way..its disgusting..</p>
<p>In terms of research expenditure:</p>
<p>Penn
Harvard
Columbia
Cornell
Yale
Princeton
Dartmouth
Brown</p>
<p>research this, godis: what year was that? </p>
<p>9991 :rewsna</p>
<p>don't give me any sass, you freaking guy.</p>
<p>GAH BIASED COLUMBIANS... CORNELL i'll give #1 tie with princeton to for engineering... seas can't even compare... i'll take either tho</p>
<p>GAH biased Cornellians</p>
<p>you don't even know how to use "to" and "too," if you even meant to type what you did in the first place</p>
<p>lol.........</p>
<p>meh... it happens... i suck at verbal... i'm a math oriented guy... which is why i'm all for cornell engineering... btw i was rejected from cornell, so i'm not a cornellian... but i'm a junior... i get another shot at 2 schools i love very much... columbia seas and cornell engineering... :)</p>
<p>woah, are you allowed to apply again once you're rejected?</p>

<p>Uh...Cujoe, are you fibbing again? I thought you "accidentally" applied ED to both Cornell AND Columbia and "got in"...according to your thread that was about three weeks ago...around ED decisions time.</p>
<p>Please clear up my confusion with a more elaborate "lie". haha.</p>
<p>ivies aren't for science/tech anyway</p>
<p>go to your state school or tech school</p>
<p>Harvard Univ
Stanford Univ
Univ California - Berkeley<br>
Massachusetts Inst Tech
California Inst Tech<br>
Princeton Univ<br>
Columbia Univ
Univ Chicago
Yale Univ<br>

Univ Pennsylvania</p>
<p>Brown is 51
Dartmouth is 56</p>

based on
Alumni of an institution winning Nobel Prizes and Fields Medals 10%
Staff of an institution winning Nobel Prizes and Fields Medals 20%
Highly cited researchers in 21 broad subject categories 20%
Articles published in Nature and Science 20%
Articles in Science Citation Index-expanded and Social Science Citation Index 20%
Academic performance with respect to the size of an institution 10%</p>
<p>Of course, those rankings aren't really concerned with undergraduate education and opportunities, only the research that's coming out on the top levels of the institutions.</p>
<p>You need to be more specific than "science/research/medicine" b/c it falls into a lot of categories. These are my opinion of course - and I'm unbiased enough, no ivy for me most likely.</p>
<p>For engineering sciences:</p>
<p>(MIT) heh jk
Cornell
Harvard
Princeton
Columbia
Penn
Yale
Dartmouth - Brown</p>
<p>For medicine:
Harvard
Princeton
Yale
Penn - Columbia
Cornell
Brown
Dartmouth</p>
<p>Princeton have a medical school.</p>
<p>delfire... i CAN'T go because it was withdrawn... so i have to REAPPLY* that was already made clear in a previous post</p>
<p>application was withdrawn*</p>
<p>I mean, Princeton <em>doesn't</em> have a med school</p>
<p>I'm sorry if I sound like just another one of those bias Cornellians, but in sciences and engineering Cornell has its strengths. </p>
<p>Sciences:</p>
<ol>
<li>Harvard</li>
<li>Princeton</li>
<li>Cornell</li>
<li>Yale</li>
<li>Columbia/Penn</li>
<li>Brown</li>
<li>Dartmouth</li>
</ol>
<p>For engineering Cornell is number 1, followed by Princeton.</p>
<p>I will justify Cornell's ranking by saying that it has a MASSIVE section of the course catalog devoted to biological sciences, has a great physics program and Ithaca campus is home to 2 particle accelerators, Astronomy is amazing and offers opportunities to take a term in Puerto Rico at the worlds largest radio telescope. . . . .research opportunities are absolutely amazing. I will be an entering freshman and I already have a research job lined up with a professor I met when working on a high school research project. . .who's work is published absolutely everywhere.</p>
<p>I just thought that Cornell is underrated when it comes to it's sciences. . . .their sciences are the strength of the University, imho.</p>
<p>OMG Dude, w t f ?</p>
<p>The last post was made at 12-29-2004, why can't you let a thread die in peace?</p>
<p>;) Just Kidding, good information to know though.</p>
<p>//Edit</p>
<p>I just found out you are a Cornell 09'er, LoL, so predictable. ;)</p>
<p>Sorry guys, didn't realize this thread was so old!</p>
