Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - outdated and overrated
This book is pretty informative about the 368 "top colleges" that they reference, but I didn't see much variation from the 2008 version of the book! The fact that they try to make you buy a new book every year is kind of ridiculous. Plus, I don't really think 368 colleges is enough-- that's only about 10% of the total colleges in the nation. Your hidden gem college may not even be available in this book. I also think that the personal reviews of the college portion could definitely be expanded. I'd ... Read More

Rating: - 4.5 stars..... Essential tool for HS seniors
Let me state upfront that our family has completed the college search process, I will be taking my youngest off to college in about 2 weeks. But when I saw this at my local library, I couldn't resist picking this up. The Princetown Review publishes a number of college search-related books, including the "Complete Book of Colleges" and this one. This book is essentially a distilled version of the "Complete Book", and frankly a lot more useful (but for people new to the college process, definitely check that out ... Read More
