Cornell is a way better school than Dartmouth.

I don’t know why every single student in at least the past 10 years of my high school has chosen Dartmouth over Cornell if accepted to both. There seems to be no good reasons to choose Dartmouth. What do you think they do to trick 1,100 students per year into going there?



Come on, we’re not talking about Cornell versus Harvard, Yale, or Princeton here. Know your place. The majority of students who applied to Dartmouth in the past 10 years of my high school only applied there because it was in the Ivy League. What does it offer that you can’t find at any other good, liberal arts schools?

Dartmouth is a good school. Choose which school you want to attend based on fit only (assuming they’re about the same caliber). I for one would have hated to attend Dartmouth because of its joke of an engineering program, but if you want to study liberal arts in a small, friendly environment it may be the school for you.
