[quote=Anonymous]These places are difficult, but aren’t unmanageable unless you are underprepared or not up to the challenge at that level. Naturally, different people work at different speeds, and some students will grind and grind and still not get high marks. This has always been the case, and this is why it’s so stressful to be in the bottom quarter or even bottom half of the class. Better to be the proverbial big fish in small pond. Grade inflation is happening everywhere due to lower preparedness of incoming students, so these schools are definitely not as difficult as they once were. I can confirm this about JHU, Princeton and Cornell from various student reports. However they are still difficult and stressful for many.[/quote]
