[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone in another thread pointed out that weed out classes can be good because they admit a broader range of students and then keep the ones who are successful. That makes sense to me. But how does having weed out classes impact the culture of the school? When I was choosing a law school, I avoided schools where the 1L year had a reputation for discouraging the lower performing students to drop out because it created a competitive, rather than collaborative, environment. Engineering school is hard enough -- not being able to work with your peers would make it even more difficult.[/quote] Calculus is calculus. Physics is physics. If you can’t do well in these, don’t pick engineering as a major.[/quote] And if you do well in these majors - engineering still may not be the right major for you. [/quote]
