[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not even an NEU “hater,” but …..“Northeastern, a school now ranked 53rd in the nation by U.S. News & World Report — and not long ago, more than 100 slots lower than that — and which [b]spends less per student on instruction than the Boston public schools.[/b]” From NYTimes “Peak College Admissions.  Insanity” [/quote]

Yeah, my jaw dropped when I read that in the NYT article[/quote]

Same. I was completely puzzled why DS’ friends were gunning for Northeastern. It wasn’t a school that got even a glance when DH and I were college kids. [/quote]

Seems some of the DCUM posters, the “haters” if you will, latch onto anything they can to justify their having been rejected.

What was the word used upthread? In regard to OP and/or PP getting his panties in a twist about being denied admission? Not having visited the school? And calling anyone in disagreement with his name calling a “booster”? Imagine seeing the world so black and white?

DELICIOUS. [/quote]

DP. YOU are the person who keeps asserting someone (or everyone?) was denied admission,  but, I haven't seen anyone on this thread who was!

Too much sugar for you, Kool-Aid Man booster/marketer. (That PP got it perfectly right).

We visited.  DD did not apply. In at T10. Over all the NEU spin and this marketer making up crap and sucking tge air out if the room. Thanks to the PP for the NYT article. Interesting. Not surprised. [/quote]

Yet you are “surprised” people do not admit to not being admitted? You sound brilliant! /s.[/quote]
