UNC - Chapel Hill Vs. Duke.. Thoughts plz!

Hi,

I have been admitted to UNC @ Chapel Hill.. and have been wait listed for Duke.

Please share your knowladge in the following topics:
1. MBA Program - Which is better? and would you say the difference is "significant"?

2. Durham Vs. Chapel Hill - Which city is more liveable?

3. Recognition - which school is more recognized?

I'm an international student so I'd really appreciate you guys helping me out with these issues. Thanks!

I can only address q # 3. Over here in my small Latin American country, Fuqua (Duke) MBAs are waaaaay more recognised and perceived as "much better" than Kenan-Flagler's (UNC). Hands down. No matter how good UNC might be.

But she came and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, help me." And he answered, "It is not fair to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs." She said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table." Then Jesus answered her, "O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire."
--Mt 15, 25-28a

Durham is a cesspool of crime, Chapel Hill is pretty nice, however a bit isolated. Recognition, Duke has a far greater reputation the farther away from that region you get.
