Dartmouth vs. Cornell

The reason I made that post, is that I was mocking your inability to even see why someone might choose Dartmouth. It is one thing to think that Cornell is better, but another to be so full of yourselves that (other than a student look to have his/her hand held) you see no reason why someone might choose Dartmouth. It is a subtle art to objectively compare two schools for their respective merit, and identify why you think one school is better than the other. It is way more effective than simply bashing another school.



Whose inability to see why someone might choose Dartmouth? Both Cayuga and I acknowledged that Dartmouth is a fine school. I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. It is you who came in here and tried to defend Dartmouth (and preemptively may I add) before anything bad was said about it.

Your comments make you seem as though you think you go to Harvard, Yale, or Princeton. News flash: as much as you would like to think you do, you don’t. We never get crap like this from HYP students because they are secure about themselves. It’s always the insecure Dartmouth and Penn students that feel the need to compulsively invade the Cornell forums to affirm their self-worth and propagate their misinformed opinions of Cornell.

You state things like identifying why one school is better than the other is more effective than bashing, yet you go on to make ridiculous anecdotal claims that can’t be refuted as to why one person should choose Dartmouth over Cornell.

Well, in my school, since its inception in 1963, every single person who was accepted into both Cornell and Dartmouth has chosen Cornell over Dartmouth.

See, we can make ridiculous anecdotal claims just like you. That should not serve as a reason for one to choose a school over another.
