[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a SLAC that was rated #70-80. I got into better SLACs but this one gave me an almost full scholarship and money was very tight in our family. I had a good experience. Too 10% of students were very competitive. I did not get all As. Made some close relationships with professors. Went to an ivy for grad school. Undergrads at the ivy were definitely way more intense and hardworking than at my college. I took an undergrad math class at the ivy and it was way harder than my college. I struggled my first year in grad school and was a bit intimidated by my fellow students who mostly came from big name schools including ivys and top state schools. They clearly had many more research and internship opportunities than me. I caught up though by my second year and graduated just fine with everyone. This was a PhD program. I’m still grateful to my slac for giving me a good education at a great price[/quote] Thank you for sharing this. [/quote]
