@boneh3ad‌ @Torveaux‌ Well their main concern is that the quality of students isn’t as high as other schools. At my school, people who don’t really care about school get into A&M easily and my parents fear that the quality of students isn’t as high as other schools. Also, College Station is like in the middle of nowhere isn’t it? It’s not like UT which is in Austin, a big city, as well as GT which is in Atlanta. Purdue is in West Lafayette, but they aren’t really a top choice for me though.

Also, the reason i’m hesitant about UT and TAMU is that i REALLY don’t want to go to school with people from my high school. My school sends approx 500 kids to UT and even more to TAMU (class size 1500), and that scares me as to the amount of kids that i might have to share classes with. My school is full of obnoxious asians who only care about grades so yeah, you can see why i got tired of them easily.

I looked at the recruiters for other schools, and i saw that Rolls Royce is based in Indianapolis (close to Purdue), Delta is in Atlanta (GT), and Wichita State is in the “Air Capital of the World”, so there are a myriad of companies based there. It’s nice to know that there are some Boeing facilities in Texas, but the competition must be fierce since you mentioned the instate students are a lot.
