My college Dilemma: Georgia Tech or University of Virginia?
Looks like i'm not the only one....
tsunami530: hey

esth h r: anthony!
tsunami530: you ahve mine
tsunami530: hahh
esth h r: ohhuh?
esth h r: oh
esth h r: hahaha
tsunami530: just noticed

tsunami530: k
tsunami530: so have you decided where you're gonna go yet?
esth h r: show you how thick it is -)
esth h r: no
esth h r: not yet
esth h r: gatech is tempting
tsunami530: hehe
tsunami530: man
tsunami530: i dunno
esth h r: but...not sure if i want to go to a tech school
esth h r: and its like city vs. pretty campus
tsunami530: i think i'll just flip a coin
tsunami530: or something
esth h r: heh..
esth h r: why do you want uva
tsunami530: balanced curriculum
tsunami530: more prestige
esth h r: yea...
tsunami530: prettier campus
tsunami530: so i realli dunno
tsunami530: then on the other hand
tsunami530: gatech
tsunami530: is super-engineering program
esth h r: better program
esth h r: yea
tsunami530: but no liberal arts
tsunami530: and near a nice city
esth h r: and spends more money on research
tsunami530: better transportation
tsunami530: yeah
esth h r: and uva is gonig thru big budget cuts
tsunami530: yeah
esth h r: gatech is the second...to mit that spends the most money for students
esth h r: in engineering
esth h r: (duh)
tsunami530: heh
tsunami530: i know
tsunami530: argh
tsunami530: *sigh
tsunami530: i dunno
tsunami530: heh
esth h r: yea..
esth h r: same dilema
tsunami530: you can decide an i'll just go to the same one
tsunami530: hahaha
esth h r: heh.
tsunami530: that way at least i know i 'll know someone there
esth h r: yea. i want someone
esth h r: cuz if i go to uva,,.its doesnt matter cuz lily is there
tsunami530: don't you have relatives in Atlanta though?
tsunami530: yeah
esth h r: but gatech, i prob need a buddy
esth h r: yea,
tsunami530: hahah
tsunami530: so its not all that bad for you

tsunami530: yeah
tsunami530: it does
esth h r: hmph
tsunami530: i dunno how it works for UVa though
esth h r: wow..i didnt know u dub has a good medical school
tsunami530: it does?
tsunami530: heh
tsunami530: well
tsunami530: so does Davis
tsunami530: UCDavis
tsunami530: but the school sux otherwise
tsunami530: so....
esth h r: ucsf
tsunami530: no loss
tsunami530: yeah
tsunami530: that too
esth h r: uva is ranjed 27th..on graduate medical research
tsunami530: hmm
tsunami530: well
tsunami530: think of it this way
tsunami530: its super balancd
tsunami530: like its all within 30th place in everything
esth h r: yea it is..
tsunami530: i think
esth h r: gatech is third in grad school ae
esth h r: par w/ cal tech and umich
esth h r: mit and stanford beat it
tsunami530: yeah
tsunami530: thats grad school
tsunami530: undergrad
tsunami530: its number 2
tsunami530: behind MIT
tsunami530: i don't think i'll be at GAtech for grad school
esth h r: yea..
esth h r: its super hard to get in!
tsunami530: hahaha
tsunami530: probably Stanford if possible
esth h r: uva law school is seventh
tsunami530: wow
tsunami530: thats not bad
esth h r: ucsd is really good! i never knew that. biomed: uva is 15th, gatech is 8th..
tsunami530: hmmm
esth h r: the thing w/ gatech is its pretty much tops in every engineering progra,
tsunami530: biomed engineering?
tsunami530: yeah
tsunami530: but it sux everywhere else
esth h r: yea biomed
esth h r: haha i nkow!
tsunami530: damn
tsunami530: if only i could get into th likes of princeton.... :p
tsunami530: hhahahah
tsunami530: [this is were everyone says:"Dream on...."]
esth h r: heh..stanford is really wellrounded.
esth h r: hah. maybe gradscool
esth h r: maybe
tsunami530: yeah
tsunami530: stanford for grad school
tsunami530: that would be schweet
tsunami530: hmm
tsunami530: oh well
tsunami530: thats a goal
tsunami530: hehe
tsunami530: that would mean that i have to ace colleg
tsunami530: argh
esth h r: oh..
esth h r: and gatech normlall gradauate in 5 yrs
esth h r: uva is noramll 4
tsunami530: well
tsunami530: thats probably because of the co-op program
esth h r: yup.
esth h r: where does your parents want you to go
tsunami530: they're fine with either
tsunami530: but they prefer Gatech a little more
esth h r: my parents are leaning towards gatech
tsunami530: yeah
esth h r: yea..same.
esth h r: have they ever heard of either one?
tsunami530: cuz of the engineering thing
tsunami530: yeah
esth h r: which one do they think is more prestigious
tsunami530: they're not sure
tsunami530: its just that
tsunami530: they're like
esth h r: oh. cuz my parents are like "no one knows what uva is"
tsunami530: if you're even considering engineering, gatech would be better
tsunami530: and that's true
esth h r: yea..are you sure you're doing engineering
tsunami530: i duno
tsunami530: i wanna do both
tsunami530: which doesn't make my choice any easier
esth h r: engineering and?
esth h r: Top Public National Universities
