<p>Is it better to be toward the top of your class at a lower-ranked college or to be in the middle/lower-end at a school that is well-ranked?</p>

<p>I'm going to use Texas State (Honors) and the University of Alabama for examples since those are two schools I am currently considering.</p>

<p>Would it be better to be well-ranked in the honors program at Texas State or an average student at Alabama? Which one would help someone get a job?</p>
