<p>My son will be a physics & math major this fall at Brandeis. We compared many fine schools (including RPI, Carnegie Mellon, etc) but were most impressed with Brandeis. As part of our comparison we visited the depts and spoke with faculty. Brandeis will provide a personalized level of instruction you will not find at Bucknell. My son liked the fact that it isn’t a party school. Everyone was very friendly during his visit. You should go to both campuses and talk to the professors, then make your decision.</p>
