It really makes me curious how much more challenging the actual class material is at a school like Harvard, vs your average state school. Do you really need a perfect ACT score to handle the workload? Are the parents buying good grades for these kids if they can't keep up with the classes? Or is the difficulty level about the same at all colleges, and they earn their "elite" status based on other factors?
Imho...It IS a different Overall education experience. The Professors, lecturers, the Caliber of the education is different.
Ever hear students tell u that their professor does not even have Command of the English language? Unable to actually “teach” and has their students read to learn on their own the entire semester?
Not an an Ivy.
Or professors that use their Own publications to “allegedly” teach .. students basically forced to buy their book/s yet never open it for class? Cha Ching, Sale made. Not seeing that at an Ivy. Their books are actually worthy.
Plus....
The Name recognition alone at the Elites Opens doors, networking, contacts.. it’s endless!
Ever think about the students who take a gap and then get admitted to an Ivy...
They often could not get in... but alas, their “ notable” name affords them the ability to
Get in the following year... after experiencing “ life”. Hmmmmm
You’re not asked ur grades at that Interview post Ivy graduation.
You wouldn’t have Gotten that Interview without that Ivy name attached to yours.
I find the actions of these Rich, famous, entitled people ...Despicable.
Any University with these students enrolled should be fully Investigating their Applications for Fraud.
Fraudulent applicants should be Removed. They ve done it before with cheaters.
The Reputations of these Universities and the Hardworking Attendees deserve nothing less.
Amazing how far some will go to cheat the System. And the IRS... a field day!
For all those that do it the correct way and the Universities that demand it...continue to set the Example of Excellence.
Rant Over..
