[quote=Anonymous]You can't generalize about how competitive Cornell is because there are 7 colleges.  The academic experience can very quite a bit depending on the college and major.  My daughter is in Cornell Engineering which is tough.  A lot of work.  The problem sets and exams never end and even after putting in a lot of work, it is tough to get top grades.  And the other students are very good so the standards are high.  But its not cutthroat in terms of students trying to undermine other students.  However, I'm sure its also tough at other top engineering programs, such as Carnegie Mellon, MIT, etc.  Does you kid want to go through the top engineering school experience?  My daughter has a friend majoring in psychology at Cornell that has a lot more free time.  In terms of the weather, it doesn't feel colder to me than much of the Northeast such as Boston where I grew up, but, as others have mentioned, it does get grey.  Its a good place for a student that likes nature.  The campus is beautiful.[/quote]
