[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP back again. Thanks to all posters who have made suggestions. I appreciate having wider range of targets and other reaches. After seeing friends' kids get rejected by Georgia Tech, CMU and JHU and other science oriented reaches, I'm getting really nervous seeing my kid's dream school list. Hopefully these suggestions will be helpful for parents of other sciencey kids as well. We have mostly been focused on research universities but plan on touring a few LACs soon just to gain more familiarity with them. Neither DH nor I attended an LAC so they are a bit of an exotic animal to us, but we wouldn't rule them out. I can see how they would be better for quality of instruction, but [b]I am not sure how the students get research experience when the faculty are primarily teaching[/b]. [/quote] This brief article should offer you insight into the relationship between faculty mentoring and faculty research at an LAC: https://www.hamilton.edu/news/story/gordon-jones-american-physical-society-research-prize [/quote] This is great. Thank you![/quote] It's nice to be thanked. I'm glad you found the information helpful. [/quote]
