If you are interested in chem research, the top ten (by percentage) future chem PhD producers were (last report) Harvey Mudd, Reed, CalTech, Wabash, Carleton, Grinnell, Wooster, Kalamazoo, Texas Lutheran and Bowdoin. Notice that the undergrads from big research universities are not so well represented; those are mainly excellent grad schools where the PhDs are earned. Ask your dad what he thinks about the above schools and this issue.
