[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Typically, the students who get into MIT have much higher stats than those who got into engineering at Elizabethtown.  I think test results would show a difference.[/quote]Right. Picking MIT for examples is maybe a little unfair. But let’s focus on an earlier assertion that UVA is weak. Pick a few MIT freshman students and send them to UVA instead. Then take them as finished products of UVA and compare them to the finished products of the “strong” schools. I’m pretty sure they will be among the best, coming out of UVA. How is that possible if UVA is weak? It’s not.[/quote]

Are you an engineer?  How many companies recruit engineers from UVA? It is pretty well known that UVA engineering prepares students to manage engineers and strong engineering schools teach students to be engineers. The Level of complexity and application of material is stronger at universities that have developed engineering curriculum over time. That is why they are ranked higher. [/quote]

Who in the world manages engineers without first being an engineer?[/quote]
