  We use variational perturbation theory to calculate various universal
amplitude ratios above and below T_c in minimally subtracted phi^4-theory with
N components in three dimensions. In order to best exhibit the method as a
powerful alternative to Borel resummation techniques, we consider only to two-
and three-loops expressions where our results are analytic expressions. For the
critical exponents, we also extend existing analytic expressions for two loops
to three loops.
