I wasn't replying to you, but to this I'll say that I doubt very much that pursuing a m.e. degree at Harvard would be a waste of time. But to remain relevant to the topic at hand, i'll say this: I'll rather have an m.e. degree from Harvard than one from FAMU no matter how the respective programs compare. That's just the truth of the matter.
Dont sleep on em. Princeton have some wonderful people over there
Georgia is rejecting too many folks for it not to be good.
GA's an ag college dude. What's that got to do with Ga. Tech? And if you think that Ga. Tech ain't shit, you're clearly on that meth.
Rank 1 Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Cambridge, MA
Rank 2 Stanford University
Stanford, CA
Rank 3 University of California--Berkeley
Berkeley, CA
Rank 4 Georgia Institute of Technology
Atlanta, GA
"Ain't shit", huh?
I dont believe harvard is in any top 20 engineering schools.
Harvard's 19th.
lol.
I don't believe FAMU is either.
102nd.
yale? Oxford? Cambridge? Man, unless youre trying to talk about nothing, those universities are borderline useless. If you want to get things done please enroll at MIT, Princeton, Stanford. Mainly Stanford; my daughter is going to go there when she grows up. Princeton is plan b.
Harvard's computer science program produced Bill Gates (founder of Microsoft) and Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook). I went to Morehouse and Ga Tech for Undergrad and I am currently going to Harvard for Grad School and I can assure you that Harvard's Comp Sci is just as competitive Tech's. Also, a Harvard degree in anything will hold a lot more weight than a degree from Tech.
As much as people don't want to admit it, name recognition goes a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng way.
Trust me, I'm not worried about my kid's future with a Ga. Tech degree. My youngest is going to UGA or UF for journalism with a music minor next year. He's doing a campus visit to UNC next month, so who knows?

i aint going to even judge homie on has decision. Wish him the best of luck where ever he ends up
But look, I don't want to lose sight of what's important here. The young brother is bright and has a great future ahead of him. We need more stories like this out there because you know they just like to paint us in a negative light. I wish the best to him...............
and to be honest he may not even choose an ivy after graduating. he should probably go to the best graduate engineering program he can get a free ride @. either way, you can tell this kid will probably do fine. the main thing he has goin for him other than being smart as hell is a serious family/ support network. good luck to the kid.
Are you serious? Isnt well known (simpsons pointed this out last night) that they both left Harvard?

I'd rather him go to FAMU than prison.
Exactly
This may be true, but if it came down to an employer choosing a person for a position and it's between a FAMU grad and a Harvard grad, who do you think will get the greater consideration? *Guarantee* you, that hiring manager will stop reading the resume when he sees Harvard University, and use the FAMU resume for basketball practice.
True
I hope that you aren't serious and were joking.

Employers are familiar with their areas of expertise so they should be aware of what schools have the best programs in specific areas of study. Harvard is not up there with MIT,Ga. Tech,Cal Tech or FAMU when it comes to Engineering as your course of study. Now if this kid were studying law he would have been a fool to turn down Harvard.
I hope that he makes the best of his opportunity and does well and doesn't get caught up in some chick.
Based on how hard she got played in her divorce I don't think that Lisa Raye is the best gold digger.
Yeah the story was a poor idea, even the picture(him looking like a young carlton banks) is just tacky.
Free ride to harvard is better than a free ride to famu
However How come he didnt have any Georgia schools on his list?
GA tech and emory are very good school as well
One thing fa sure he will have FUN at FAMU!!

I don't remember the sat's going up as high as 2400. Is this something new?

im starting to wonder if you are a dropout from the real mit Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Yep. Fucked me up too. I graduated in 84, so I know shit's different now. It's like when I went to my nephew's graduation, and the valedictorian and a GPA of 4.98.
Those AP classes will push your shit up there.Similar threads
