[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter chose Duke over ivies including penn, brown and Uchicago. She is a second year and is loving it and maximizing it[/quote]

Duke is regional. Big only in South Carolina and vicinity.

Brown, UPenn, international. [/quote]

100%, as soon as you step outside of the Carolinas the Duke degree is actually viewed as a negative. People wonder why these students couldn't get into an actual good school like an ivy league instead of a faux intellectual sports school? And if they're going to go to a sports school, why would they be dumb enough to not just go to a better school like UVA or UNC? in my experience a duke degree is one of the least respected, even in the south. stay away if you can[/quote]

You are an ignoramus of the highest order.   And, Duke is now harder to get into than Brown or Penn.  [/quote]

I agree that Duke is a step up from UVA and UNC.  Still, I can’t figure out why it’s rated so high academically compared to other top ten schools.  [/quote]
