[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a son that is a CS major at CMU. It is a tough program, but the kids have social lives. I'm not really sure where this idea that it is all work is coming from, there isn't a huge party culture, maybe that is it? Also, a lot of kids are double majors - pretty much every non-arts major at CMU has to take some coding classes. The thing about CMU CS is, you have to intellectually gifted, you can't just be a hard worker. -- I think that is different at Cornell, which tends to have a lot of strivers -- nothing wrong with that.[/quote] Go to Cornell if location and feel are not pushing you one way or the other. Go with the better overall school over department when both departments are good. Not to be too mean but for the most part, CMU (ED excluded) has a lot of really bright kids who didn't get into Cornell.[/quote] I don't think that's a thing.[/quote]
