[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it odd people don’t consider the impact major plays. If you major in sociology or gender studies the school will seem very chill compared to those majoring in physics or engineering, for example. [/quote] Not necessarily--some of those top SLACs have really intense reading/writing loads for "soft" majors--and the standards are very high. I went to a SLAC and found physics and organic chemistry easier than the upper level sociology course I took. The grading curve on tests etc. were harder in physics/chem, but the final grades were equivalent. But I always felt like I never fully quite "got" how to apply theoretical models and use sociological data to make arguments as well as others in the class did. I was a perennial B+ student in my sociology course even though I worked very hard. [/quote]
