[quote=Anonymous]CMU was my sons first choice for CS. We visited the campus and it was small and the dorms looked like they were about to fall down. He still applied bc he is such a serious academic. He was waitlisted and went elsewhere. He has two friends 1 in engineering and 1 in CS. It is not a balanced experience is the best way to put it. It's high pressure and they end up with very recruitable skills but if you super academic kid might benefit from broadening out in college, CMU is likely not the ticket. I am amazed at the social growth my son experienced at the school he went to which also has an excellent CS program and so for him, it was a good thing he did not get in. I think too much stress might steal a time in these kids lives where they need to both live and start to love their work. it cannot be all work and no play.[/quote]
