[quote=Anonymous]For example, Va Tech teaches calculus in a warehouse with a TA. No instructor and you learn math on a computer. Some do very well in these very large classrooms, others don't. Private colleges offer more interaction with your professors and hands on learning. You have to know the environment where u can thrive. Many kids graduate from VA schools with very broad degrees that do not help them in the long run--- it is about fit. Many kids graduate with no jobs be ause they weren't in the right environment to start with --- BTW -- no one in Loudoun county gets financial aid -- but you can get merit aid to balance out a state vs private tuition cost-- [/quote]
