[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top tier: SWAP+Bowdoin + Wellesley Next tier includes Middlebury, Varsar, Hamilton, Carleton, CMC[/quote] So wrong. Claremont McKenna is first tier, and significantly better than Swarthmore and Bowdoin in outcomes, and Middlebury is not far behind either. Vassar is around third tier.[/quote] Rankings aren't just about finance career outcomes; it’s overall excellence, which is something CMC struggles with. [/quote] Nonsense, CMC is an outstanding school. This type of crap is just annoying. Middlebury parent.[/quote] If you really want to get down into the details of the “next 10 tier,” after the top 5 of WASP and Bowdoin, there is no question that Harvey Mudd and CMC — and several other schools— are ahead of Middlebury. As a parent, you should be more concerned about Middlebury staying in that “next 10” than proclaiming about CMC’s status there, which — unlike Midd — is very secure. With Middlebury’s perpetual “over enrollment,” the permanent decline in study abroad, and Midd’s now taking 70% of its class ED, it is quickly headed in the direction of Bates and Colby. Not good.[/quote] The HMC troll once again proves themselves to be a clueless idiot. Your incessant shilling for HMC and denigrating CMC is tiring. I'm not worried about Midds position in the rankings. Nor am I impressed by HMC. My kids was recruited by CMS and turned them down. As part of the process they were asked which school they preferred; Mudd didn't make the list even though the kid was offered by MIT as well. Kids go where they feel fit and your nonsensical ramblings aren't going to change anything.[/quote] It’s kinda strange not being impressed by HMC, it’s a quality stem college with outsized resources compared to most lacs for stem. It’s just the stem version of CMC.[/quote] PP: HMC is a great school, but like the Bucknell troll this one is just too much. HMC is a niche school for a certain set of kids. If mine kid had entertained the offer CMC would have been the choice but they wanted to go East. The kid also turned down MIT and Williams as they decided on Midd. They are all great and this fool dogging CMC while praising HMC to no end is just annoying. I am just glad my kid made their decision without the noise and nonsense that happens here.[/quote] NP. Don’t take everything so personally. It’s not about you. Harvey Mudd is exceptional. [/quote]
