Summary: Warning....MIT not included
Review: I was disappointed to discover that major engineering schools such as MIT were not included in this catalog. This catalog is for foreign students planning to come to the the US to study engineering, not US high school students.

Summary: Save your money for tuition -- don't waste it on this guide
Review: While this book does list the 2,300 ABET-accredited programs, that is about all it does. It offers "comprehensive program profiles" on fewer than 100 of them. The first three schools I tried to look up (all major east coast universities) aren't included in the profiles. In addition, the tear-out postcards included make this look more like a marketing ploy than a useful guide. Bottom line: There is nothing here that you can't quickly find elsewhere -- for free. I'm in the middle of some serious research on these kinds of programs -- in an effort to make a college choice. This so-called guide was a major disappointment. It's going back for a refund.
