Re: Of these US schools, which are the best? (study abroad options)
With due respect, none of those ranked public universities are listed by LBG. Top public schools are University systems of California and Michigan, possibly Texas.
Coming back to the list, I do agree that UIUC is at the top of the list however the differences between certain universities are marginal at best.
LBG has not listed top ranked private unis either. so its a moot point whether the top ranked public unis are in his list or not.
my point was more general that its not always the case that more expensive uni means better education.
illinois or texas are significantly better than unis liek clark uni or drexel or roger williams, but cheaper.
