[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you come out with a STEM degree at a school like UC Berkeley, that is incredibly impressive. Much more so than Middlebury or Colby or Swarthmore. UC Berkeley STEM is cutthroat and hard as hell. [/quote] You think Swarthmore STEM isn’t hard? Okay buddy. [/quote] Not saying it isn’t hard but Swarthmore way overplays their intellectual and tough brand. Really not that different from other SLACS. Top 10 SLACs are pretty much indistinguishable but Swarthmore is more braggy. They act like they are UChicago or Columbia. Big chip on their shoulder for some reason.[/quote] Maybe it's because so many Swatties go onto earn PhDs? Historically, it is THE feeder for top doctoral programs across multiple disciplines, including STEM fields. https://www.swarthmore.edu/institutional-research/doctorates-awarded[/quote] Good point. The others at the top of that list share the difficulty reputation. [/quote]
