Is it a good school?  Let's put it this way -- US News & World Reports doesn't even bothering ranking it.\n\nIt is not selective.  And it awards lots of online degrees, which employers will not take seriously.

The US has great campuses from one end of the country to the other.  There are wide fields of studies offered with clubs, intramural activities, social groups and all types of sports.  Needless to say our campus life is busy!   Nothing matches a packed house at one of our college basketball games with the band playing and the support of the student body and alumni dressed in the school colors chanting their team on to victory!!!

whoa slow down dubai chubby, im a student in us grade 11 in dubai and go to one of the 2 main american schools here.  i will try to give my unbiasd opinion.  i go to Daa (dubai american acadamy), the ohter one is Asd (american school dubai).  those are good for having an american curriculm.  asd uses AP, daa uses iB .  asd is in jumeriah but is moving to al barsha where daa is, asd is carries more of a reputation but it is harder to get into and daa is gaining fast.  other schools in english are Emirates international school adn al mawkeb.  probably avoid that last one, my brother goes there and doesnt like it, the education is not good.  asdubai.org, dubaiacademy.com

education.yahoo.com gives most universities. I havn't seen a university they don't have yet for those inside the united states. Europe (if eouro=europe) though, I havn't found a good source yet.

Actuallly we American's DON'T have the largest chances when it comes to education. Our education system can't even compare to that of other developed countries such as the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan etc. American students know far less than they should. When a group of Chinese students were asked to name the first 5 US presidents they had no problem. When a group of US students were asked the same question, they were clueless. Many US High School graduates don't even understand what is happening in the own government. They don't understand International relations. They do understand which stars won the latest Emmy awards & what time their favorite shows come  on, and what the scores are for their favorite sports teams. Thei priorities are in the wrong place. Why does Bill Gates, a private citizen have to use his own resources to improve American education when the American government should be doing it? America will not be on top for much longer unless some great improvements are made.

You cannot compare the education in both the countries in any case. They have different standards and different extents to which they carry out research. USA has good research facilities and good mix of people whereas UK is more theoretical kinda stuff.(to the extent I know and people I have heard from). Rest is upto you.

It's the wonderful public "education" system of the USA.\n\n'tis funny no? Actually, no, not at all.

I'd imagine in the UK it does.  Doesn't mean much to people in the US - at least not anymore than a US degree.

Our universities are really good, but our K -- 12 public education is nothing to write home about.  In terms of expected duration of education, we're 14th, but in terms of the literacy of our total population, we're 68th.  Pretty dismal for a world power.

Hi, I'm an Indian, doing B.Sc. from an American college.\nI feel that though American colleges have been good in giving practical knowledge, it is loosing on the account of theoritical knowledge. Just for a basic example, in India, a 14 year old student knows what is trigonometry, which is taught much later to an American student. Although, as i said, practicality wise, American education is very good.

*you can choose to start school very early in the morning or 1pm\n*no paper, so you have to copy all the worksheet, that the teach wrote on the board before class,down on your notebook.\n*the free food, if any, are like a couple of crackers and some juice, on the good days, its pasta or soup.\n*the actual class courses are much harder than here  on america.\n*foreign language is very weak.(english, the only one)\n*private school students dont care about their studies, at all.\n*one day these gangs started fighting in the middle of our lunch break and they lit a bunch of fireworks(brazilian style haha) in the cafeteria..\n*we actually learn how to play sports in p.e.\n*ill add more as i remember..
