well, i think the world’s best undergrad univ has to be princeton, very objectively speaking (though i LOVE yale far more, n have applied ea there), the reason being well-rounded (its engineering being great, only stanford’s being better…plz dont bring up berkeley n mit, they r not exactly liberal arts undergrad powerhouses) and its size, hence undergraduate focus (stanford and harvard lose here slightly although yale definitely doesnt). i maybe wrong as i am an international student and i only have chinese-whispered knowledge…so take this with a pinch of salt…
my feelings quantified are: (although obv. its meaningless crap, but just for the fun of it)
princeton 9.9 / 10
stanford 9.8 / 10
yale 9.7 / 10 (mmuahhh…i just wish i get in…plz god)
harvard 9.6 / 10
upenn 9.5 / 10
and then downhill… but it HUGELY varies for individual to individual
