I think it will be unappealing for a lot of them. Think about some of the logistics. Let’s assume the second campus is nearby but not super close, so perhaps there’s a 20 minute shuttle ride. What do you put at the new, second campus? Do yo

A lot of these schools have been putting their content on services like Coursera for a while now. I think that’s generally a good thing, but it can’t replicate every aspect of being an on-campus student (no teaching labs for example), and I

They certainly give away a few of those spots, but the price is a significant donation that will cover more than one student who needs financial aid, and the Ivies give very generous aid to those that need it. I know more than one person th

I am paywalled from the article, so maybe I’m misunderstanding the quote you pulled due to lack of context, but you also can’t just double the acceptance rate over night. Even if you could admit more students and cover their tuition, you ru

Building on early success isn’t even easy. I had some early success in mine but then years of stagnation until I developed enough understanding to iterate in a way that didn’t feel like a trivial waste of time. On the other end, the sufferi

I heard of one but the guy went back to do his degree when he was in his late 30s. He came in with a game plan, executed, got out.

Does that count both undergrad and law school or are you just looking at their undergrad education? Because Harvard and Yale also have two of the top law schools, so it’s not surprising the lawyers they produce tend to be in the upper echel

The other big thing is that these schools want to admit people they know will matriculate (they don’t want to over enroll or under enroll). Presumably, legacy applicants are statistically more likely to matriculate and hence there is a pref

They don’t. Most major private institutions don’t. However why tap into your endowment when people will give you money?

It totally is an official thing or was when I applied. Statistics on legacy vs non-legacy admission rates and how legacy status was factored (the nature of the advantage you got varied by school) in were readily available when I was applyin

I’ve met a lot of people complain about learning it, and while I don’t write it as often as I used to, it does help me write faster. We were also told even as kids that a big justification for us learning it was to help develop fine motor s

I started doing that during my undergrad degree in electrical engineering, along with some other changes to remove ambiguity in my handwriting. I wasted 20 minutes on an exam because I confused a 1 and an ‘l’ in my own writing and didn’t wa

Basically, if you do some minimal amount of work, they’ll give you a C. It’s pretty easy to graduate with a bad GPA. Private schools care a lot about graduation rates since parents don’t want to pay tuition if they see stats that say their

People forget that the Ivy League is first and foremost a sports league. It also matters what you want to study. The Ivies will generally be highly rated across subjects, but lots of schools have their specialities for which they are very h

Additionally, people in this thread keep talking about legacy status like it’s an easy in. How legacy works varies by school, but at the Ivy I attended, it gave you double the chance of getting in and only if you applied early (they showed

Normally we care not about entropy but changes in entropy or entropy measured in comparison to a reference distribution, so you can just take the negative of that difference.

It turns out kids at top schools are still just kids. They might have been more successful academically in high school if they’re at an Ivy, but they’re not a different species. They struggle, succeed, and fail like anybody else. Even if yo

I think what’s described in this post is the issue for some high-achieving students (Ivy or not) when it comes to self-sabotage but there’s a few others: My personal story involved two years of self-sabotage. However it wasn’t intentional,

Eh I think this will fundamentally change the site, almost like the inverse of the Digg exodus. A lot of us old school users are angry and done. The newer users that haven’t experienced a different social cycle of Reddit are the one are the

I joined Reddit almost 15 years ago, shortly before I became a freshman in high school. I mainly joined it to chat on r/programming back when that was one of the top subreddits. I was just starting out as a programmer and it was instru

This was something that was in vogue in the mid / late 2000s, then Haskell became the cool kid language and types are back. The thing that drives me crazy about Python typing is that I need to import stuff to make full use of the type
