[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is also a very high-variance strategy. If rejected by all T10s (or whatever), you may be stuck studying political science at UMD or UConn. This strategy has been very successful in recent years, but that's of course anecdotal. Curious to hear thoughts, questions, etc.[/quote] My thought is I hope the self-motivated kid "stuck" studying at UMD ends up passing your by in grad school or the workplace.[/quote] I think she meant stuck at a niche major, not stuck at UMD, which is an extraordinary school for CS. Her strategy works for Top private schools where one can switch majors freely. The strategy wouldn't work at flagships where oversubscribed majors have separate admissions. [/quote]
