If you are referring to Cal State University, in my opinion the best one is San Luis Obispo. Its even harder to get into than some UC's.

I believe Stanford University is the highest ranked of all California schools, placing 5th in the US News and World Report rankings (probably the best known college ranking system). It is also one of the better-ranked doctorate-level engineering schools, but there are other universities better in other areas.  Check out the links for more information, the second provides tuition, and student body sizes.  The first is a link to the Stanford University homepage, you can apply there should you choose to do so.\n\nThe best California universities in the rankings following Stanford are:\nCaltech at #7, UC Berkeley at #20, and UCLA at #25.\n\nhttp://www.stanford.edu/\nhttp://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/directory/brief/drglance_1305_brief.php

If you're an undergrad - its the best bio schools.\n\nHere's a couple\n\nJohns Hopkins, Harvard, Stanford, Yale, UC Berkeley, UC San Diego, UC Irvine, UoP. \n\nThe first few would be the premier. I would say that UCSD and UC Irvine are good match schools and U o P would be a safety school.

It amazes me that NC has one of the best university systems in the US, but its public schools rank so low.\n\nChapel Hill is about the only district in the state known for having a decent school system.  There are always private schools.

Harvard Buisness school is the best. Look into Yale and Oxford.

"Which is best? " is a personal question; it can only be answered in terms of which is best *for you*.  There is no one criterion or set of criteria with which to measure law schools.  Academics do not agree on any one list.\n\nSome considerations for you to determine which is best for you:\n\n1)  Where do you intend to practice law?  \nIn a country with a British law tradition, you may want to study in a school located in one of the British Commonwealth countries.  Although America has numerous excellent law schools, you should know that the American legal tradition, while it shares richly in the Anglo-Saxon legal tradition, differs significantly from it in many respects.  Constitutional law, procedure, rules of evidence, and criminal law are areas that come immediately to mind.  \n\nAnd within American schools, there is significant difference regarding, for example, East Coast v. West Coast and Southern schools.  Southern and Western schools generally come from a "community property" tradition which does not apply in other states.  Louisiana, with its background of French Napleonic law, is a unique case.  And, of course, California law differs in significant ways from that in many states.  And the laws of Texas, for example its real property law which includes unique provisions for oil and gas assets found under the land, differs from that of other states.  And its state bar exam tests on these uniquely Texan matters.  No doubt you would want to be aware of these matters as you consider your choice of schools.\n\nOn the other hand, law school prepares you to perform legal research, formulate and write opinions on legal matters, and choose and represent clients.  Those professional skills are transferable to any legal environment.  Some individuals trained in, say, Scotland, may practice for a time in California.\n\nAs commercial, political, and other transactions become ever more global in nature, transcending national boundaries, having training and multiple legal systems, and in comparative and international law, has increasing value and applicability.\n\n2)  What sort of educational environment is best for you?\n\nLarge law schools can offer larger libraries and a larger selection of elective courses and perhaps specializations and certifications in specialities as well.  Large schools can also offer amphitheater-size classes and be more impersonal while also being very competitive.\n\nSmall schools can offer a more personal experience with more interaction between students and faculty.  Small classes and more individual attention can be important to students as they find their way through the wide and complex universe of legal study.  These same schools may have relatively small law libraries, and fewer opportunities for legal internships and experience.\n\nNo on size is best for everyone.  You must decide on the factors that are important for you.  \n\n3)  Do you know already which speciality within law you intnd to pursue?  If so, then you will want to give special consideration to schools that offer several courses, or perhaps a certificate, in that speciality.  For example:\n\nMaritime or Admiralty Law\nIntellectual property or patent law\n"High Tech" law of telecommunications and technology\nThe Law of entertainment or of sports\n(Millions of dollars have been made by individual attorneys representing and acting as agents for Hollywood actors and American sports stars.)\n\nThese are only a few considerations.  No doubt others, and you youreself, can think of additional factors that may be important for you.\n\nBest of Luck\n\nMark / California\nps: I'm going through the law school application process myself right now.  But my situation is quite different from yours and my selection is limited.  But I am confident I will do well, pass the rigorous California bar exam, and enjoy the opportunity to contribute to my community.
