Why is UMich so overrated?

[Anonymous]

Goes without saying but I would never send DC there. UMD has a lower acceptance rate and higher SAT average, and a better engineering school and law school. Plus the endowment is bigger.

The location? College Park is a dump and Ann Arbor is supposed to be beautiful.

Who says? Other than you?

Someone was up late I see. Drunk too no doubt.

You can’t be serious. UMich has one of the top law schools in the country. UMD does not.

If you are in state for UMD, then the tuition costs factor in more than the quality of life and quality of school. But for out of state applicants, there really is no comparison.

OP is talking about undergrads.

Did you by any chance send your child to Emory's engineering program?

OP mentions the law school in her original post.

OP, you seem to have a strange obsession with the University of Michigan. Last month you wrote that Michigan was one of your daughter's "top safeties"

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/914075.page#18172317

Then you started a thread asking why Michigan gets negative comments here (but then sockpuppeted a post bashing Michigan):

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/915069.page#18203179

Then, earlier this month you started a thread claiming that Michigan was overrated (and sockpuppeted two replies supporting yourself):

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/918436.page#18310694

The day after that, you started another thread complaining that Michigan is considered better than JHU:

https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/918813.page

You then started a thread about your daughter choosing between Emory and UMich:

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/918990.page#18326783

In that thread, you sockpuppeted several responses. My favorite was the one in which you claimed to "a recruiter for big tech":

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/75/918990.page#18334194

But then in this post you claimed that your daughter already graduated from Emory's engineering school (two days from decision to graduation -- must be the fastest degree ever earned):

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/90/918990.page#18342372

You also twice referred to your own thread as "silly" -- something with which I think everyone would agree.

A few days later, you started a thread asking why UVA is preferred over UMich in this area:

https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/919888.page

In this thread you claim to have attended UMich for undergrad but also referred to the University as "a third tier toilet".

And now this thread.

I assume that you are finding this all very entertaining and you have probably entertained quite a few of the other posters, but could you please find another outlet for your issues with Michigan? We want this forum to be useful for things other than catharsis for your particular psychosis.

LOL Jeff. You are so cruel.

This is amazing. Thank you for finally explaining why we get these weird anti-Michigan posts every so often.

Immortal burn by Jeff!!! That was fantastic!

This nutter is spreading misinformation about a random school. Me thinks her kid didn’t get in and she’s now on a mission.
