| i know one kid from my hs got in, but im not sure if he's on CC...
though CS is the most competitive department (besides CFA, probably) in CMU, it is not that competitive compared to powerhouses like MIT/Stanford - lots of my peers came here because they got rejected from those schools. | |

| I'm CS 2009...
We're better for CS majors that don't like engineering but like discrete math. | |

| The ECE curriculum is so flexible that it allows you to graduate with a BS taking only a minimum of EE classes (only 4 actually, plus the compulsory math/science core). You can take all other required courses then exclusively in CE. Due to the large number of electives, it's also easy to add a CS minor to your diploma. When making your decision, keep in mind CMU's CE is ranked # 3 in the country by USN&WR. | |

| Anyone in the SCS class of '11 admitees got any particualer interests/languages that they write in?
I am fluent(if you will) in C and Perl, as well as having dabbled in C++ and a couple others.
I am very interested in robotics and AI, and have built and programmed several robots.
I am also currently working closely with the world's second largest supercomputer in Red Storm at Sandia Labs here in albuquerque as a student intern, although mostly with the data storage system.
anybody else? | |

| wow, Sandia, that's pretty awesome... I've worked most with Java, so that's at least what I'm most comfortable with... also some C and C++.... | |
