“If you and your parents paid for bad advice,” from some lame pro counselor, or you got useless info from the hs GC or on reddit, don’t go pointing angry barbs at CC. We make mistakes, sure. But the body of posters is mostly volunteer and speaking from their own experiences.
We can’t be responsible for the choice of pro. Nor do we “owe” you a service.
OP hasn’t checked in since 12/22. Safe to assume he’s not listening.
Computer science is not Dartmouth’s strong suit? The BASIC computer language was invented at Dartmouth. It has always been strong in engineering. I haven’t been on this website for a while, but it still seems to be full of people who barely know what they are talking about and/or are simply trying to promote particular universities.
Dartmouth is tremendous school. In the study of CS it is perfectly great too. However in the elite levels of research and focus there are other schools slightly less difficult to receive acceptance into that are equal to or superior in this particular area of focus.
No one is being paid or has a reason to recommend ten different schools in four different time zones with different levels of selectivity.
Hi,
Umm I’ve got offers from Manchester, Durham and Warwick. Majors revolve around math. Can I know which one has the better curriculums and which is more recognized in the UK and which is more recognized throughout the world?
In simple UK rankings, Durham > Warwick > Manchester, but there’s not a lot in the difference. Which has the “better” curriculum will depend on what direction you want to go: YOU have to read the program at each place and see what fits you and your plans after undergrad best. As for most recognized ‘throughout’ the world, ask where you are- only a handful of universities are truly globally known.
@VimuthM, I agree with @collegemom3717. Amongst those 3 UK choices, instructional and testing styles and rigor (and recognition) will be about the same and the emphasis will be detailed online. You’d have to do research.
Bigger question is whether you want an Oxbridge-style collegiate uni, a newish uni with a real campus (not very close to any major city), or an urban city uni.
