[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reputation isn’t reality. [/quote] Except the original post explained a kid’s actual experience at cmu. [/quote] anecdotal. [/quote] If a kid isn’t allowed to consider reputation or anecdotes, how would you suggest they pick a school? Lowest price? (And please don’t say rankings, because rankings are based on reputation.)[/quote] Admitted students day Look at meaningful data points, student outcomes, graduation rates, average gpa, etc This tells you nothing. Admitted student day is filled w/kids who have no personal experience with the school. The rest of what you suggested tells you nothing of the grind. If you are considering anecdotes, don't rely on one single data point. Connect with a number of current students there from the same high school. [/quote][/quote]
