<p>Which college guide is best?</p>

2

<p>i like princeton review for comprehensive.. and college p-r-owler for individual colleges</p>

3

<p>Fiske is great. I found it quite comprehensive and usable.</p>

4

<p>yeah..fiske and princeton review are great.. u should also check out some online guides..like campusdirt.com, its based on student opinions.there is also **************, if u want to know more about an individual college.</p>

<p>you know, I like fiske's guide because it doesn't just reduce a college into a bunch of ratings. But that also means informatino is harder to glean from it than from the princeton review.</p>

6

<p>It's not about a specific college... but The Naked Roommate is good and it's funny too.</p>

<p>I like the book "Admission Matters" for a good general introduction to the college search/selection process. A free chapter is at the publisher's website at <a href="http://media.wiley.com/product_data/excerpt/78/07879796/0787979678.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://media.wiley.com/product_data/excerpt/78/07879796/0787979678.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>My fav by far was something called Students' Guide or Insiders' Guide to the top schools in the America.</p>

<p>Reviews of each school from 3 students who give different aspects of life at their school. Accurate too.</p>

<p>I've seen that book. It's pretty good. But I think my personal favourite is the college p r o w l e r (for some reason it finds that word offensive) series.</p>
