Question: What are the best business schools in America?

I just found out today that I'm too late to buy the "Best 237 Business Schools" by Princeton Review. But I'd still like to know what the best schools are so if you own the book and can tell me some of the schools or even if you know where I can find a list myself, or if you know of the best schools yourself.

College and university biology programs provide the opportunity to study a plethora of ideas and concepts. Below is a list of the top biology programs from colleges and universities in the United States. Obviously, publications rate the programs differently, but I've seen the following programs turn up consistently in the rankings. It is always best to compare and contrast different programs as biology programs are unique. Always choose the best school for your interests and aspirations. Good luck! Top Biology Programs - East Boston University Brown University Carnegie Mellon University Columbia University Cornell University Dartmouth College Duke University Emory University Harvard University Johns Hopkins University Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Penn State University Princeton University Rutgers University in New Brunswick State University of New York at Albany State University of New York at Buffalo State University of New York at Stony Brook Tufts University University of Connecticut University of Maryland University of Massachusetts Amherst University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University of Pennsylvania University of Virginia Yale University Top Biology Programs - Central Indiana University - Bloomington Michigan State University Northwestern University Ohio State University Purdue University University of Chicago University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign University of Iowa University of Kentucky - Lexington University of Michigan at Ann Arbor University of Notre Dame Vanderbilt University Washington University in St. Louis Top Biology Programs - West and Pacific For information on additional biology programs, see West and Pacific. Top Biology Programs - AP Biology Those who wish to gain credit for introductory college level biology courses should consider taking an Advanced Placement Biology coarse. Taking the course itself however is not enough to gain college level credit. Students enrolled in the AP Biology course must take the AP Biology exam to gain credit. Most colleges will give credit toward entry level biology courses for students who earn a score of 3 or better on the exam.

Question: How does the american university/college system work?

I want to study psychology, maybe in the US, but I am wondering how it works? Do I have to take any tests or is it enough to just show my grades? How do I apply, and how do I know which universities are the best, and what average grade I need to be admitted for their psychology course? I am Norwegian by the way:) Thanks!

Most US universities will have a page on their website, under admissions, for international students. It will list out what is required, as that can vary by university; but in general, you'll need to take the TOEFL test to prove your English fluency, and the SAT or the ACT as your entrance exam. You can take these exams in Norway. They will also want certified translated copies of your grades/transcripts. Universities in the US will very good reputations for their psychology undergraduate programs include: - University of California Berkeley - Stanford - University of California Los Angeles - University of Michigan Ann Arbor - Yale - Harvard - Princeton - Carnegie Mellon - University of Wisconsin Madison - University of Illinois Urbana Champaign - Massachusetts Institute of Technology - U Texas Austin - U Minnesota Twin Cities - Columbia University - Cornell - University of Pennsylvania - Johns Hopkins - Nortwestern - Duke - University of Chicago - Penn State U - University Park - Vanderbilt - University of Virginia Some of these are highly competitive universities, and quite difficult to get into. Others are a bit easier to gain admission to. All have top programs in this field. You can use the Princeton Review website (linked, below), to get an idea for what test scores and grades each of the schools looks for in applicants.
