|
Date: June 1st, 2016 3:55 PM Author: orchid sound barrier To be fair, I like Cornell, and I think it unnecessarily takes a lot of shit.
But there are two incontrovertible facts:
1. The fact that there are some weird state schools really drags down its prestige
2. Lots of people definitely choose it for the sole reason that it's in the Ivy League |
|
Date: June 1st, 2016 3:59 PM Author: Doobsian Curious Indirect Expression Library ultimately, cornell is rarely someone's first choice which is odd for an ivy/elite school. but it's all relative--for some it's the reach school and where you planned on going was stony. make sense? there are 2 tiers of applicant and, in turn, student: 1) "cornell is my safety, but i'm likely HYPmo"--->well, i'm planning on rocking out a year and then trying to transfer and 2) "i think i'm going to rutgers or bc, but reaching for cornell, who knows"-->HOLY SHIT I GOT INTO CORNELL!

Date: June 1st, 2016 4:03 PM Author: orchid sound barrier Not in my experience. Cornell and Columbia people were separate animals. Maybe today it's different because top students just apply everywhere.
It was more like, a whole bunch of people wanted to go to Cornell, some got in, while the rest settled for Binghamton, Geneseo, BU, etc. |

No argument with the subthread above. The Cornell student body is comprised solely of people who were rejected by another Ivy.
Brown on the other hand is irrationally appealing to liberal 18-year-olds from prep schools. I can make up my own major! I can pretend that Providence is a cool city! I will still have Ivy League resume if I want to apply for banking! Hermione!
And Dartmouth is a paradise for semi-smart people whose main interests are frats, drinking, trees, sports, date rape, and bros hooking you up with jobs. People like this would rather go to Dartmouth than Columbia, Brown or a top LAC. Harvard and Princeton can accommodate this kind of person, but there are only so many slots and there are a lot of students who are slightly less smart or slightly less good at lax. |
