[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reed and University of Chicago come to mind as schools that have strong academic reputations across disciplines. If you look at PhD placement, for example, Reed is in the top 5 whether you are talking about biological physical sciences, literature, or social sciences. Here is a list of schools by per capita PhD placement by discipline. I realize this is not the same as job placement, but it gives you an idea of how well rounded a school is--if it is strong just in the sciences or humanities, or if it is strong across the board: http://www.thecollegesolution.com/the-colleges-where-phds-get-their-start/[/quote] I do think those are very different questions though. Schools that have a focus on preparing undergrads for grad school are different than those that prepare them for careers right out of undergrad. Both are valuable, but depending on the applicant's interests. [/quote]
