Current Cornellian Here - Ask me anything

<p>would you make the same choice to go to cornell now that you have been there for 1/2 year?
what are the good points and bad points? </p>

<p>I’d say so. It’s close to home, was my top choice, and has of course the reputation. Good points - it’s beautiful in terms of nature, if you need help in any aspect of your college life there is someone to advise you, I’ve found professors who genuinely take an interest in their students, including one who I got to know and has given me some insight on the future. The weather isn’t that bad honestly. I’m from NYC so it isn’t too bad of a change, but I know people from say the South or midwest who aren’t as acclimated to it. The ‘middle of nowhere’ complaint doesn’t really affect me that me. There’s college town and relatively close urban centers. Sometimes it’s difficult to get a straight answers though, because there are so many people you can talk to, things might not be clear. I also hate the bandwidth cap lol. DC++ is great though. These are pretty minor though. I also thought I would finally escape ******bags, but alas T_T. Overall, I’m glad to be here though. </p>

<p>do u make friends mostly from classes? or from clubs or from sports? </p>

<p>Is it possible to graduate on time as a CALS biological sciences major while only taking 4 classes per semester? </p>

<p>I would think so.
