[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your DCs are the type who have succeeded at a pressure cooker high school and ended up at a rigorous college (think JHU, CMU, Princeton, Swarthmore, Georgia tech, UIUC), were/are they happy? Did they eventually get burned out? Do you wish they experienced a more balanced campus life and waited until at least grad school to be so serious? [/quote] I [b]went to Hopkins recently[/b] and enjoyed it. If you are outgoing, you will do well. If you are too introverted however, it will be harder to make friends. Opposites attract if you will. Hopkins also has grade inflation now. Ended up at [b]MIT for Ph.D. [/b]after good grades at Hopkins.[/quote] If you went to MIT for your Ph.D., how could your undergrad experience have been recent?[/quote] Maybe they are still at mit?[/quote] Then presumably it was at least 4-11 years ago - [/quote]
