Would love to hear any details you can share (without potentially identifying bits) about the issues.

Would love to hear any details you can share (without potentially identifying bits) about the issues.
- debacle 4y agoNothing scandalous: - Severe GPA inflation - Not being able to compete with nearby state schools for all but two programs, while being much more expensive - Elitism that comes with being an Ivy - Students are in many ways competing against each other (in certain programs)
- screye 4y ago> nearby state schools Are Ivies near any of the generally top tier state schools ? My intuition was that the best state schools were near Chicago and in California. I do feel like state schools do outcompete nearby 'prestige' private schools in those two regions. UPenn -> Maryland Cornell -> Buffalo Harvard, Dartmouth -> UMass Yale, Brown -> UConn Columbia -> SUNY Stony brook Princeton -> Rutgers ________ I know UMass, Rutgers and UMaryland have strong CS & Engineering programs. Dunno much about the other schools or other programs though.
