Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good compilation of information available elsewhere
I think this book serves as a nice way to look at schools beside each other; however, I have used both this and the Princeton Review version, and I like theirs much better. Here, you really just get copy-paste sections from the school's websites. The schools write the majority of the information given. I feel that I am capable of getting that information of their websites, and what I was looking for in a book like this was a (at least slightly) more distanced assessment of the schools.
