[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Virginia Tech engineering. DD didn't go. She looked like an potential engineer as a HS senior (720 math sat, AP Physics C, Calc BC). She (we) asked a lot of questions of VT: why they flunk out so many students (who obviously were top of their class, to get into engineering at VT in the first place) Asked if there would be a way to start out, intentionally, on a course schedule that planned on 5 years to graduate in engineering (since so many student inadvertently ended up needing 5 years anyway) Their attitude, their response to questions was so harsh, bullying really. It seemed like such a fallacy that they wanted to encourage students in stem/engineering. Harsh environment for a woman especially. imo[/quote] This seems very typical of many big state engineering schools that are well regarded—VT, Berkeley etc [/quote]
