[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I only read the first few pages of this post, but as a JMU grad, the comparisons between JMU and Tech are interesting. [b]When I graduated high school (90, so a long time ago!) JMU was quite superior to Tech academically[/b] (engineering the exception then also). Interesting to hear that they are even or maybe Tech is a bit above JMU now in overall academics. I grew up in VA and our top top students from highs school all went UVA or WM, darn near close to top went to JMU and the above average kids went to Tech. VCU and Radford were much easier to get into. In 5 years or so I'll be looking at this again for my kids but good to know how things change.

I can say that JMU was an absolutely amazing place to go to college. Such a friendly campus, fun students, plenty of parties and plenty of space to be yourself. [/quote]

I graduated from NOVA HS in 85 and no, no, no, JMU was not considered better than Va Tech in my school.  And I was not a science major.  The rankings back then were just as it is now, UVa, WM, Va Tech, JMU.  In that order.  Virtually everyone I knew who went to JMU did not get into Va Tech.  Now that doesn't mean there isn't someone who chooses JMU over Va Tech, but I don't know any.[/quote]
