<p>I had a conversation with one of my friends, I told her that I would like to go to Oxford. She told me that US universities are much better, and she told me to go to Washington State instead. She seems to have no respect for Oxford or Cambridge. </p>
<p>I told her that she is raving mad (well not in those words), sure is she said Harvard is better it would be ok. But Washington state??? I just can’t see the logic in that!</p>
<p>Disown her</p>
<p>Oxford is much better than Washington State.</p>
<p>I would definatly go for Oxford over Washington State. There is no comparison. If she said that some of the Ivies or Stanford/MIT were better you could have an argument but a State university which is not even the best state one in the state has no comparison to Oxford.</p>
