icy9ff8,

I think you got the wrong person. I thought BK's post was 90% positive. NU isn't perfect and I don't expect everyone would give it 100/100.

BK,
If you go by #people winning Fulbright and awards like that, NU is comparable to other top schools. Last year, NU had the 4th-highest number of winners. https://us.fulbrightonline.org/docum...hronicle_1.pdf I honestly believe NU students are as driven as others overall. Otherwise, NU wouldn't be a target for just about every top investment banking and management consulting firm, which looks for not only smart but highly motivated and driven people. There will be people who are "just going through the motions" but you will find the same in other top schools too.
