[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are visiting a school with a very high acceptance rate and an academically weak cohort of students. DC is a very strong student and will possibly get in into a T20. In this school, however, DC will stand out and be on top academically. Does it make sense to go to this low ranked school and be on top of class, get all research and internship placement opportunities, etc. In top 20 DC will just blend in with other academic overachievers.[/quote] Define "blend in". It's totally fine if "blend in" means in the top 25%. No one is expecting to be in the top 1% in college. It's most likely a miserable experience if "blend in" refers to in the bottom 25%.[/quote] Nobody normal thinks about class rank in college.[/quote] It’s cute that they think any of this will matter in the new economy.[/quote]
