[quote=Anonymous]I don't think there's much new here. For at least 20 years now, Harvard undergrad has tilted overwhelmingly to being a school about networking and connections - and not much else. The grade inflation, the cutting classes, and the priority being placed on finance and consulting clubs has been the norm for a long time. More than 50 percent of all Harvard students go into finance or consulting. The networking is the point of Harvard - not the educational experience. Nor the social life. When MIT is known as the "party" school in Cambridge, things are very bleak indeed for normal undergrads at Harvard. Harvard attracts a "type." And it's not the intellectually curious type. Both my kids go to T15 schools. We visited Harvard. Neither was interested in applying. Cold, cold school for those not interested in Wall Street. [/quote]
