Which one is better? Can you recommend me?( by comparing about advantages and disadvantages)

A friend of mine was at Duke in 2003-2004 and he told me it was a great year, challenging but really enjoyed. If you're interested, I can give you his e-mail.

You should also take in consideration the location, I believe Duke is in NC, Cornell in NY...It will be warmer in NC

North Carolina is a beautiful and much cheaper place to live than NYC. And Duke is definitely a good school, with great alumni.

Duke is a great school, but Cornell is still an Ivy League uni... Personally, many of my friends studied at Duke, doing both master and JD. I applied to Duke, got admission and now 'have' to decline it with some regrets... I think Duke is great place to be (climate, prices, accomodation, student body). The student office is very helpful and attentive to your concerns. Go to Duke!
