[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having toured many and attends admit days for a few, my opinion is you could pick up the student body at and T15 and drop it on another campus and you’d be none the wiser. All the stereotypes at top are outdated at this point. [quote]My hunch is disgruntled parents enjoy repeating them to disparage schools from bruised egos perhaps. I don’t know, it’s just odd to me that so many speak with conviction when so terribly wrong. [/quote]Having said all that, I think there are loads of excellent institutions of all rankings and tend to find the positives in most. [/quote] +1 The constant snipping on DCUM, especially for the Ivy+ schools, seems to be motivated by sting of rejection. Guess it helps some to assume the students who got in are miserable etc. [/quote] Definitely this. There are happy and unhappy kids at every school, and geeky and social kids at every school. The ratios vary but most kids find their people.[/quote]
