| Not applying- though I was seriously considering it for a very, very long time
Like-The people. Indepenant thinkers. You don't go to columbia if you can't make it on your own, and that makes a difference in the classroom too! I like the core for what I'm telling you. I think it makes for a well-roundedness you're not going to find at say Brown or Amherst. Everyone goes knowing this important stuff, from engineers to poli sci majors.
Dislike: a bit disjointed socially. I mean, if NYC is your backyard, on-campus activities seem not as exciting. Dislike the core for this reason: it can be the point of just being bulky and some of the classes arequite watered down. |
