[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GT  is a good school but it’s no mit.[/quote]

Well, MIT is the best engineering school in the country. So you have a point. But it is ranked 4th in the country in engineering. If you are serious about engineering, it is an excellent consolation prize. [/quote]

GT has the best aerospace engineering program in the U.S.  It's almost impossible to get into, especially OOS[/quote]

Interesting. I know that it’s way better than Maryland’s.[/quote]

Maryland is in the top 10. It isn’t that much better. [/quote] Really? May be it is not much better in Aerospace on your scales, but in everything else engineering UMD is not even close...
This year MD is only 12th in aerospace.  By the way,  did you realized that VT is also better in engineering than UMD? UMD is general university. Any Tech is mostly focuses on Tech subjects (engineering and science.)
This is like to compare apples and oranges, and concluded that fruits can be grown successfully in any garden because apricots had good crop last year.
Some resent stat for GT  (undergraduate) for you:
#8 (tie) in Top Public Schools
#6 (tie) in Management Information Systems
#7 (tie) in Production / Operation Management
#7 in Quantitative Analysis
#8 (tie) in Supply Chain Management / Logistics
#4 (tie) in Best Undergraduate Engineering Programs
#2 in Aerospace /Aeronautical / Astronautical Eng
#3 in Biomedical Eng
#2 in Chemical Eng
#2 in Civil Eng
#5 in Computer Eng
#4 in Electrical / Electronic / Communications Eng
#4 in Environmental / Environmental Health
#1 in Industrial / Manufacturing Eng
#3 in Materials Eng
#2 in Mechanical Eng

Sorry, I am biased. OOS tuition and acceptance rate for OOS are big issues at GT. Yes it is not MIT, but it is way more advanced than UMD in STEM fields.
I get it that South/Atlanta is not for everyone.
Ga Tech graduate in a field that GaTech is #1 for last 30 years... [/quote]
