[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopkins premed, CMU SCS, Cornell engineering, are epitome of grinder schools. Rigorous curriculum, harsh curve, cutthroat culture, a combination of these.[/quote] Male-dominated programs with a lot of men who are academically competitive with each other, sharp-elbowed, some social skills limitations because not very pro-social, intense interest in schoolwork but not in other types of campus activities, focus on getting high-paying or hard-to-get jobs.[/quote] I think it's important to not only avoid schools that have this culture, b[b]ut to find a job in an organization that excludes these types of people with no a******s rules. [/b]They can be weeded out in the recruitment process.[/quote] The problem is nobody has the same definition of A**hole. Too many companies will give this line...only to find out they are A**holes, but of course don't think they are.[/quote]
