[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm…I didn’t realize Cornell engineering was like this. I knew it ranked well for engineering but I didn’t realize that meant it crushes the smartest students. My teen has it on their list to apply (not this year). He goes to a tough STEM high school (comparable to TJ) where there are always a handful of tests during the year the whole class will bomb (40-60% scores). He rolls with it and carries on. Tries hard, but not a perfectionist who gets troubled without perfect grades. Not sure if that means Cornell will maybe be an ok fit or not. [/quote] Here you've been presented speculation about what it's like at Cornell from parents of kids who DIDN'T go to Cornell. And then you've had input from students who actually attend Cornell and said things are going well there. Why then is your takeaway that it "crushes the smartest students?"[/quote]
