[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope: One at an ivy. One at UVA. There are many more opportunities at the ivy and for the most part classes demand much more: more reading per week, more difficult problem sets, more complex midterms in calc. Peers do multiple time-intensive activities in addition to class at the ivy and more have campus jobs(though usually these are resume building jobs such as research or paid undergrad learning assistant). Classes are a lot smaller at the ivy but that is not coddling. [/quote] Same but different top flagship, both stem majors. There’s a reason the Ivies have such high MCAT scores on average and require far less time on prep, the classes and exams are intense and prepare them well. I know it’s more fun to knock them down and they aren’t perfect, but the intense rigor and keeping up with the best of the best is very challenging and not being coddled in the slightest.
