5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! 2 Thumbs UP!, August 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Barron's Profiles of American Colleges (23rd ed)(Book and Disk) (Paperback)

Great Reference! Extremely helpful for locating colleges of your interest. Highly recommended book for those in grades 9-12. It not only helps you locate a college, but a field you would like to pursue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick and easy way to find the facts, May 25, 1999

mjgreene@sover.net (Hanover New Hampshire) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Barron's Profiles of American Colleges (23rd ed)(Book and Disk) (Paperback)

It helped me place myself in the right direction as far as choosing a college. It's hard to choose colleges just by what you hear by older people but this book is extremely useful in information you need to know before visitng a college. I would reccomand this book. The software was useful to me, however if you know how to write a formal essay it's no big deal.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thick, but lacks some info, March 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Barron's Profiles of American Colleges (23rd ed)(Book and Disk) (Paperback)

This book is the thickest college book I have seen and yet it is not the most comprehensive one. Also the disk that comes with it wasn't so useful.
