…apparently I’m an ******* for asking because I wanted to know more about Michigan.





Post #1: …internship opportunities in Ann Arbor are nothing compared to the literally countless in Atlanta. I really liked GT, and their business program is only getting better. The only advantage I see with Michigan is the male/female ratio and the social scene on campus.

Post #4: What else is there? GT seems to have the advtange with research/internship opps, location, admissions dept, price (20k difference), size, and some others.

Michigans economy is in a decline as we all know, and Ann Arbor is a tiny city (relatively) so I can’t imagine much opportunity outside the university.



You didn’t ask anything, you opened this thread and told the forum that in your assessment GT was superior to Michigan in every way important to you except social scene. Whether you realized it or not, you effectively challenged the forum to prove you wrong. Then when Alexandre and GoBlue81 provided you with concrete examples of Michigan’s strengths you showed a (to me) surprising lack of knowledge about the university, especially the honors and business/technology programs which you say are important to you, (N.B., There is a dual degree program through the schools of engineering and business but you must start in the engineering school. You can also specialize in two areas at the business school - Business Information Technology and Operations & Management Systems.).

As far as I’m concerned the main purpose of the CC forums is to ask/answer questions and clear up misconceptions. But it isn’t here to convince people to change their minds after they’ve made their decisions.
