<p>In terms of name recognition, Brown produce 4 Rhode Scholars this year, how about Duke or Northwestern or even other Ivies. Brown is more focus on undergraduate education when comparing with Duke and Northwestern. That means Brown’s undergraduate students after graduate many goes to other great schools like HYPS, etc. Brown’s engineering school, med school are very new, it doesn’t have business school as of now (it has business program though).</p>
<p>Brown used to focus on liberal arts education like Williams college (Forbes give it rank #2 -<a href=“Forbes America’s Top Colleges List 2022”>http://www.forbes.com/top-colleges/</a> ). So how do you compare Williams and Duke or Nrothwestern? it is hard, isn’t it? Each school has its strength and weakness, find your best fit.</p>
