very good.......2001-09-30

Next to the Vault.com career web site, the US News Best Graduate Schools guide and their web site is the most critical resource for the professional development of aspiring graduate school and MBA students.

A few good articles, but most of the info is on the net.......2001-08-19

This is really an expanded magazine issue. It has a few good articles - "Smart Degrees for the Real World", "Part-times Rule" - but it is mostly just a ranking of various types of graduate programs. There are also some statistics on each individual school and academic program (tuition, application deadlines, etc.) but almost all schools have a website where you can get the most up-to-date information. Given its statistics-oriented bias, this guide doesn't give much guidance on how to chose one school over another. You won't find helpful information like class descriptions or student comments. Better to buy one of the guides for the specific type of graduate school you're considering.

Maybe "Best Professional Schools 2002".......2001-07-24

I purchased this publication to give to a daughter graduating from a liberal arts college. She is unsure of what to pursue in graduate school because her interests are so diverse. This book is mainly concerned with Law Schools, Medical Schools, Engineering Schools, Business Schools, and Schools of Education (not sure how that one squeezed in with all the other ultimate big salary options). While she could do well in any of those professional schools, that's not where her interests lie. I wish it had more information about more diverse programs. There is a very small section that covers the huge diversity of "other" Graduate Programs. If you know you want to go to Law School, Med school, or get an MBA, this will be useful. If you are undecided or have a multidisciplinary bent, this is much less useful.

Want an honest, up-front guide to the best gradaute schools without having to spend crazy amounts of dollars? This is it for you! The coolest thing about this guide is its rankings about different schools and the level of information it provides. ... it does the following: 1. Shows you a listing of the best grad schools (obviously!) 2. Makes up your mind for you.

Want an honest, up-front guide to the best gradaute schools without having to spend crazy amounts of dollars? This is it for you! The coolest thing about this guide is its rankings about different schools and the level of information it provides. For the price, it does the following: 1. Shows you a listing of the best grad schools (obviously!) 2. Makes up your mind for you.

Now you may wonder how it does that.. it will lay out very valuable information in a concise, one-page format and all you need to do is look at the info, compare it and short-list your top 5 (or 8 or 10 or whatever) schools. Forget the hassle of poring over pages and pages because this is a short, paperback book that really gives you what you want. This will take you where you need to go in quick, easy steps. I know I may make it sound like an exercise equipment, well, thats really not the case here. believe me, I have read gazillions of grad school books in all price ranges and this is the most satisfactory of them all. Not buying it over a more expensive, flashy book is a mistake. Dont let this opportunity go, esp to all you stressed out college seniors!

a very helpful reference book.......1998-10-27

I found no information under the catalogue of Taiwan, China. There are at least 10 medical colleges in Taiwan and all have their own teaching hospitals with advanced equipment and excellent doctors. I guess the only reason that Taiwan being ruled out from the directory is politics.
