[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is dead-set on attending an Ivy league school, but is also only interested in engineering. Based on my research, the strength of the engineering program follows roughly this order:

Cornell
Columbia/Princeton
Harvard
Yale
Dartmouth
Brown

Realistically we think he can only get into Cornell or Dartmouth. While Cornell may have the strongest program, in his situation he would likely lean toward Dartmouth because Dartmouth would still like a real ivy to him and he wouldn't feel insecure about attending Cornell which many think is not a "real" ivy. Would be be shooting himself in the foot by going to Dartmouth over Cornell for engineering?[/quote]

What is wrong with MIT, Cal Tech, or Stanford.   They have good Engineering school too.  [/quote]

Unless you were a Westinghouse Scholar (or whatever the new name is) if those are your choices you pick Stanford.

CalTech also has huge girl-boy imbalance which is not great for a variety of reasons. [/quote]
