psu has a great engineering department.
also at FAMU he will be enrolling in the "dual degree" engineering program with florida state more than likely.
That's the most important part. Big names only guarantee big price tags. Each school has dept that they're recognized for and when a person tries to enter that field, any prospective employer will know which is which.
Young dude looked at his suitors and chose the one that suited him and with his family, I'm sure he made the right decision.
Only on BGOL can a 16 year old kid get shitted on for going to college.
a debate over where a 16 yr old that none of us know should go to school... after he's already announced his final decision.
he will have the exact same options available to him after completing his undergrad studies.
he will probably have some sick internship opportunities while having a good time at school.
he will probably graduate in the top 5% of his class.
he will get to select a great graduate program, pay nothing, will already have job offers waiting for him upon completion... all before he turns 25 yrs old.
what is this debate about again?

Shitting on Paul Krugman and Steven Hawkings?
Maybe the author meant University of Pennsylvania?

Dude ain't trying to do no snowflake shit. He is like I want the booties and swag.
That brotha is smart

he should go to Harvard many contacts there not hating on the other schools but Harvard for a minority is golden. imagine your fellow graduates and their connections and clubs you can join, associations//?
He's made HIS decision. He can attend Harvard for post undergrad. Let this young brotha breathe.
Major props to young mr jones
This!
basically. He has done well for himself but his scores would place him in the bottom quarter of the class at Harvard. Regardless of what friends/family et al say, I advise all of the kids I mentor to go to the best school they get into. Better schools have more money to throw at minority students. Harvard has around 7k undergraduates and an endowment of over 27 billion. FAMU has an endowment of around 88 million.

that would matter if he were fighting for a piece of the pie but they offered him a 4 year full ride up front.

And some of the same ones in the thread saying he should go to a white school will be the first ones to call a celebrity or rapper a coon.
Got to love the hypocrisy of BGOL

All day.
Maybe he hates the cold? Props to little homie.
My son is on the same path. He wants to be a surgen. If I told you he turned down Harvard to go to the University of Michigan you boys would thinks he's crazy. Not knowing Michigan has one of the best medical schools in the country and Harvard doesn't.

FAMU alums do go hard for their school. When I worked at Accenture, I met a Partner that single handedly create a FAMU recruiting program to hire a certain amount of FAMU grads into Accenture every year. Several of my associates were hired due to her efforts.
He made the best decision for HIM and nobody else. He can perform his grad studies at any Ivy School he chooses. Looks like he wanted to experience black culture as well.
Maybe he dont want a paycheck,maybe he wants to create paychecks for others.
this idea of going to school to work for others especially if youre talented is lame.
to me anyways.
Harvard isn't top 10 in medicine either, it makes you wonder how do they always find a way atop those rankings.
I have a life idiot. Did you even click the link? notice Georgia tech is nowhere
His parents went to Fort Valley State...the shittiest college in Georgia. No surprise they influenced him to go to FAMU over the other schools.
They probably have built in inferiority complexes that the kid inherited despite his academic abilities...he is not a whiz kid by any means.
Hell anybody can have a kid test well and get skipped a couple of grades.

Its gets pretty chilly here tho. Frost but no snow type cold.
I seen broads already rockin the skin tight jeans and thigh boots today.
But yeah....props to the young man. We can speculate all day about how much better Harvard would have been.....not even an argument really. But thats prolly why its a "story" in the first place. Wish him much luck and may he not be sidetracked by scallywags along the path to greatness.
Ur on bgol although you graduated in 92' which means it was a horrible decision. I can guarantee if you went to Harvard you most likely wouldn't be on here.
BINGO However I do think he is a whiz kid, he has a good head on his shoulders.
