Customer Reviews

Very good.

I bought this college review for a young friend who is considering colleges. She has great potential in math and I wanted her to look at schools that would offer her more opportunities in math. I hope she will find the product helpful as she and her parents try to match her unique abilities and preferences with the right college.

Best College guide on the market

This is definitively the best college guide on the market. Ranks the school by academics, by financial expense, by retention ratio, by major, by state.... it's all in there. Should you buy just one college guide , that would be the one !
