[quote=Anonymous]Junior and senior level courses at my top LAC were designed to emulate graduate level intro courses (heavy independent research component, tons of academic papers to discuss and analyze, no formal exams but mostly writing assignments in a STEM field), so not having immediate access to officially labeled graduate courses wasn't a major factor. We were also required to do a senior capstone. I think my school ranks in the top 10 for life science PhDs on a size adjusted basis, and while I didn't ultimately pursue one, friends going to Harvard, Yale, and the like found the coursework to be easier there. YMMV. [/quote]
