[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Cornell and it might as well have been a huge state school. So many classes were taught by TAs, I barely saw an advisor and so much self-advocacy was necessary. I could have vanished in the middle of my first semester and no school employee would have noticed…until the tuition went unpaid. I loved my time there but now, when I take my son on college tours, I see what I missed out on. [/quote] The students don’t call it the Big Red Machine for nothing. [/quote] Cornell is bigger than UVA. So this isn't surprising. And whether you "missed out on" something is in the eyes of the beholder. One of my kids insisted on attending an SLAC and loved it; my other kids would have jumped off a bridge first. It totally depends on the kid. My hunch is that you know your kid can't get into a school of Cornell's caliber, so you're preparing yourself now.[/quote]
