[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other POV. There’s not much there there at W&M. The campus doesn’t make up for the unfun of Williamsburg. It’s needlessly “rigorous” and therefore unnecessarily competitive. Obviously many love it. It’s a self-selecting group. [/quote]

I wouldn't say it's competitive at all. I don't think people compete against each other. [/quote]

+1. That’s not the culture.  This is someone with No WM first hand knowledge. And fundamentally, I question “needlessly rigorous”. It is, rigorous, but like many schools that can be major dependent. But, I thought you went to college to get an education?  It isn’t like all classes are curved or something.

It's not for everyone, right? This is a view from people who did not find W&M a good fit. [/quote]

WRONG. I a comment WM was a good fit for one of the my kids. The other kid got it, did not think it was a good fit and went elsewhere, which was a great choice for them. For other kid, who wanted almost exactly the same things as OP’s kid, WM has been amazing. I based my comments how Op described their kid and what they want.  Not “which school is best for every kid”. [/quote]
