[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CMU is a very poor choice for undergrad imo. The campus sucks the city sucks, the school is very one-sided and intense. Many say it is a miserable experience. Most people do not believe that this is what an undergrad education should be like and the CMU name is not strong enough to motivate them to overlook these things. Tons of top kids who want to study engineering and cannot make it to MIT or Stanford go for ivies and then do graduate degrees at engineering-focused schools like CMU and GTech. [/quote] How can a school that is known both for IT and Musical Theatre be called one-sided?[/quote] CMU does not provide a well-rounded undergrad experience. It is not strong across the board, and students are too siloed in their specific discipline. Musical theater is such a particular niche. [/quote] their social sciences are very strong. The only weakness are humanities.[/quote]
