Course Work?

[DangerDave]

<p>Wow, looking back on your thread history, you’ve wanted to transfer out of Case starting in the fall of your freshman year. Had your essay ready since September? What a total joke.</p>

<p>I’ve spent the last month weighing my decisions for universities and have read many of your posts that seem to put Case in a positive light. Now I check your thread history to find that you hate Case and have wanted to transfer out since freshman year first semester?</p>

<p>two quotes from you

I’m a poli sci/hsty major.
I am impressed with the quality of the professors, especially the guest professors. I have had 3 poli sci prof’s, and several History Prof’s. First off, the prestige of the social science department is not up to par with the pre med/engineering/science departments, and the course offerings are much more limited. All the prof’s I have had are passionate about their classes and are extremely accomodating, and make genuine attempts to know their students. All my prof’s knew my name by the second week, which you won’t get at BU, and are always excited to discuss topics outside of class. One advantage is that if you are a strong writer, you have an edge over many students.
It is difficult to say how “good” a department is, especially since I can only compare college to high school. The department is very friendly, and the faculty doesn’t act as though they are above students. The largest class I had was an intro hsty course which was 60ppl on lecture days, 20 on discussion days. Otherwise, none of my poli sci courses (2 of which are mandatory courses for poli sci) are larger than 22 people, which allows for meaningful discussions.

I am a history/poli sci/econ major, and the course offerings are extremely limited, and the prof’s seem fairly mediocre. There are very few classes in hsty/posc departments/
The administration is very unhelpful, and would not allow me to switch SAGES (before classes even started) because the prof’s inability to effectively speak English is not a legitimate concern…This may sound stupid, but I was not pleased that my econ professor is a European liberal, and was constantly preaching gov economic intervention despite the fact that our book and economics in general condones such actions.

<p>If you need more proof, I suggest you read some of your previous posts and the self-contradictions will be come apparent immediately.</p>

<p>Looks like admissions at higher institutions did a good job weeding out insincere/incapable people in your case…</p>

<p>Jeez, thank God I have choices and merit scholarships.</p>
