[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, as an MIT grad - you aren't actually at a hard school if you aren't studying all the time. Just a fact of life. That doesn't mean we didn't party after midterms (we did) or that we didn't have other things like research, jobs, Greek life, sports. We just took academics very seriously.

The person that posted that is in the suck. Everyone at MIT has that stairwell they cried in. IHTFP 4 evah[/quote]

Truth per my ivy engineering kid. Almost always makes the A yet common tears/ angst after some very difficult exams that crush everyone (median 60-70% on purpose, filled with niche research based problems that do not have neat answers, they just want to see what you can do with the problem, high score could be in the low 80s). 
At these tough schools, kids are all in it together, they cry together, work very hard, and party together when it is over, and know to shut up when one in the group really does bomb something. [/quote]

Fun fact. There is only one Ivy in the Top 10 of Engineering Schools.  Cornell is that one.[/quote]
