[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd really warn here against the advice of going to an "easier" engineering school for a less 'soul-sucking' process. Yes, the introductory classes are a grind, but just like any other step in your kids' education, t[b]hink about the peers they'll be surrounded by. You want them to be intellectually challenged and with kids on their level. [/b] Yes, engineering majors usually end up employed but the ranking of your program does matter for [b]what companies recruit at your school.[/b] Just like any other field. And the reputation of your [b]undergraduate program does affect graduate school admissions,[/b] for those considering post-grad education and training.[/quote] one hundred percent this! peers matter! undergrad matters! It is a waste of a top brain to send them to a less rigorous Engineering school. Go to one of the top privates or the top 3 publics. [/quote]
