[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole discussion of whether an ivy league or large public school is more advantage is nonsense without knowing what a student wants to study. You need to look at the individual program and the strength of each school in that area of study. [/quote] no it isn't nonsense because most kids don't know what they want to study (or if they do, end up switching). Looking at program strength is too narrow and doesn't provide enough of a hedge. [/quote] Most kids have some ideas if they are stem or humanities. You don't have to go so narrowly to say applied math vs pure math, but if the school is ranked poorly for mathematics it makes no sense to go there no matter how highly the school is ranked overall.[/quote]
