[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Peer group. If you are at a very selective college where most, if not all, students have a strong academic base and are strong students, the classroom discussion, the types of assignments and the pace of the curriculum/amount of material covered will be different from a school where students are good learners but may need more time to learn the same content.[/quote] This. The caravan moves with the speed of the slowest camel. I was a math major in a middle of the road state school. My son is now a math major at a T10 school. Our experiences, in terms of the depth and breadth of the curriculum are very different, and it’s not due to the quality of teachers (he’s mostly had TAs so far). Colleges teach to the demographics they have.[/quote]
