[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the love for Pitt here. I'm a Pennsylvania native, and my parents used to use the prospect of Pitt as a threat: "If you don't find a way to get that A, you'll end up at Pitt" and "We can't afford to pay for the schools you want to attend, so if you don't pull off that scholarship, you'll end up at Pitt." My friends' parents said similar things. And indeed, the kids who ended up at Pitt (my brothers included) were not stupid, but were not exactly academic powerhouses. It's a school for high average kids who don't want to or can't get the grades for a truly excellent school. Sure, it's improved a bit, but it isn't a great school by any means. [/quote] Haha I hear this for sure. I think the reason it's gotten so popular is two fold: 1. rolling admissions, so alot of people apply and get in early, which helps them get connected to the school early on. 2. recently known for very good merit.[/quote]
