<p>Typical media drivel.</p>
<p>Let me guess. The writer spent a few hours analyzing CC's recent history and focused on finding the bad and the ugly. Yes, there is the ultra moronic WAMC forum, but how could the writer miss the Financial Aid and test prep fora? I guess there is not enough vitriol there to warrant a mention? Just people tirelessly and selflessly helping people who cannot find the right answers from the expected sources. </p>
<p>And who else shows up? The disgruntled former JHU adcom who endlessly tried to direct readers to ... Other places, and left when its efforts appeared futile? How many secrets or really useful tips did he share here? How about ... Between very few and none! </p>
<p>And why should we pay attention to those amazing GCs and heed their opinions. Simply stated if they would do half the job they should, this site might not have existed for long. Little wonder they criticize as this site exposes them for the incompetent dinosaurs they are. How many do you find here correcting the misinformation? Just a few who deserve rounds of applause. And those are the good ones who believe in helping! </p>
<p>I have been here for a decade, and this reporter did NOT capture the essence of thus forum. He missed ALL the formative 4 to 7 years and just grabbed a few examples to affirm his prejudices. Did he bother to find out why people stayed here for years? Nah, that did not fit the derisive narrative! </p>
<p>What a waste. And what a shameful use of a keyboard. But so typical as well.</p>
