When comparing CMC and Pomona in an attempt to determine which school is better, I think it comes down to each individual’s personal considerations. Many people think Pomona is better because it has a higher ranking and its departments are more balanced in terms of quality. I, however, really appreciate the practicality of an education from Claremont and the preparation one can receive for the real world. I also plan on majoring in economics and I know CMC has an excellent - best among LACs - econ department. In terms of learning for the sake of learning, Pomona is probably better. That said, CMC is much better in terms of the usefulness and pragmaticality of what is learned.
