[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I graduated from CMU with a degree in Computer Engineering in 2010 with so many regrets.  I literally spent at least 75 hours a week on classes and assignments.  I didn't have time to develop my social skills (e.g. EQ) and hobbies during my time there.  There were many hobbies that I wanted to do in those four years, but I never had the time due to academic commitments.  You could say that I can follow up on those hobbies after graduation, but they were never the same after that.  IMHO, I could get the same job with the same pay had I gone to UVA, Virginia Tech, or GMU as I would at CMU, and had much more time to pursue my hobbies.  Time is something that I will never get back at CMU.  CMU is a great school for people who have passions for academics and very much nothing else, and it was definitely not for me.  YMMV.[/quote]

The average CS graduate from CMU makes much more than the average UVA, VT, or GMU CS graduate.[/quote]
