[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I loved UChicago but my kid did not. My kid loved Carnegie Mellon but I did not. (Kid got WL and I wish kid would move on rather than hoping against statistics.)[/quote] My kid loved CMU too and is also WL. Seemed like a grind and a longshot to me--I was trying to sell Pitt on that trip to emphasize a rolling admissions school that was a low target for them and instead they fixed on CMU which is a stretch financially for us and a reach academically for them. I think it's a great school, but I just thought kids seemed very stressed there and didn't think it's a place my kid would thrive. Probably will end up at VT which we were both so-so on for atmosphere/location, but the price is right! (we're in-state).[/quote] My kid will probably choose Pitt over VT because he loves the Oakland vibe. Go figure. [/quote]
