[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“ Are the students at the College as good as at HYPSM, if tat is what you are asking ? Yes, probably to definitely.”

This is where I disagree with you.  If 1/3 of the undergraduates are matriculating after the age of 25, it should be safe to assume that most of these students are not of the same caliber as those matriculating at HYPSM as 18 year olds. Those schools, all of them, do not have 1/3 of their enrollment wrapped up with untraditional students. [/quote]

If it makes you feel any better, I went to Harvard and there are definitely some dummies there. [/quote]

Yes, I agree. I was shocked how sub-par some of the kids were. Not sure how they got in. Although some were most definitely athletes. Much lower admittance bar for athletes. But Columbia probably has the same issue. I was poor and mostly hung out with the poor kids. The ultra wealthy and politically elite kids had their own groups. Blacks mostly hung out together. Same as most college campuses I guess. I work for the federal government now so not sure the Harvard name did me much good. Although random people still seem impressed I went to Harvard. [/quote]
