[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s an intense environment that I wouldn’t want my kid to be in but if your kid thrives in that kind of environment…[/quote] That intense environment is pervasive — nary a classroom is empty when class is not in session. Just room after room of grinders, grinding. DC took it off the list.[/quote] This comes up very often as a negative for certain elite schools. I'm not sure what the arguments is unless it's for an easy A. I want my scientists, doctors, and engineers to have actually worked hard in a competitive environment and risen to the top.[/quote] Agree. Nothing wrong with hard work and hours of studying per week. I went to an ivy and was like that back in 96-2000. Spouse JHU. Same. [/quote] Yes, if you went to an Ivy, it is true that your kid has a much better admit chance applying ED1 or ED2 at Hopkins. It and its ED1, ED2 partner, Chicago, should not be in the top 10.[/quote]
