<p>You need to clean-up the design, bro. Big time.</p>
<p>Simplicity is the key to success.</p>
<p>Don’t believe me?
Well,
Heard of google.com?</p>
<p>As a temporary measure, I’ve shifted back to the previous theme, which looks a bit better. Am currently working on another post in the series, after which I’ll hit the sack.</p>
<p>@thetechnut I like your blog and I had seen it before I made my initial comment. Thanks for the wishes. I am here on behalf of my second son. He will be applying to colleges in 2013/14. He is too busy doing stuff he enjoys and I don’t want him to get hooked on to CC. (I have plenty of time to waste. :))</p>
<p>@aniruddh care to share your google-like blog? :p</p>
<p>@UnitCircle - Oh! A parent who read the blog. After hearing some of your (i.e. all CCers) encouraging words, I’ve semi-rebooted the semi-stagnant series (definition of which is no posts in the past week or so). Feel free to spread the word if you deem it useful. I put it out there for a reason. ;)</p>
<p>@aniruddh - You seem to know a bit about aesthetics and web design. As UnitCircle said, perhaps you’d like to share your blog!</p>
<p>aniruddh, I know you are a good sport. Hope you don’t mind if I kid around a bit.</p>
<p>great blog!!!</p>
<p>Much appreciated.</p>
<p>well, got my acceptance letter from rose-hulman inst. of technology today. Applied there as application cost was nil and its ranked #1 on U.S news rankings list. Does anybody know how good or bad it is otherwise for eng. ?</p>
<p>Could someone re-post the link to technut’s blog? I cant seem to find it.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>@pinkpanther32 - I checked and Rose-Hulman seems to have an excellent ranking for engineering courses for bachelors and masters degrees. Thing is, it’s probably like Harvey-Mudd College - not listed too high (due to lack of consideration under the doctoral category), but otherwise an excellent place to go. Where else have you applied (if applicable)?</p>
<p>@nkhlgeorge - You can find it at vivekn.net</p>
<p>just saying, HMC >> RHIT</p>
<p>And yes, RHIT is a great place to go IF you’re totally into engineering <em>like GTech</em></p>
<p>well, this is what I found on CC’s visit reports section:</p>
<p>[Rose-Hulman</a> Institute of Technology - Videos, Photos, and Visit Reports](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/vibe/rose-hulman-institute-of-technology]Rose-Hulman”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/vibe/rose-hulman-institute-of-technology)</p>
<p>seems it’s an under-rated school.</p>
<p>Yeah RHIT is good. Nikhlgeorge got a 5k ka scholarship also :D</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Stereotypes, oh stereotypes.
GT is probably one of the few schools with a strong engg curriculum and an amazing sporting team. </p>
<p>Plus, it is top ranked for a lotta other majors other than engg! Go check the rankings…</p>
<p>Andddd… They have a pretty good business school from what I hear</p>
<p>they dont have a business school aniruddh</p>
<p>HMC and RHIT are both very similar schools.Both are primarily small engineering schools with a focus on undergraduates,both have skewed ratios(though there are all girl colleges in close vicinity to both) and small class sizes.
For what its is worth HMC has a higher average SAT score and a lower acceptance rate.</p>
<p>I personally feel both of them are at par. However Terra Haute-is not so great a place to live in compared to Claremont. Also HMC only offers a general engineering degree whereas RHIT offers specialisation in optics/mechanical/electrical/civil and chemical.
HMC also has a compulsory internship/work exp program called Clinics, whereas Rose has something called RHIT ventures.</p>
<p>@ nkhlgeorge: are u a us citizen? because from what I have heard Rose does not offer any scholarship to internationals. What were ur SAT/Toefl scores?</p>
<p>Damn, management. Sorry! Typo!</p>
<p>HMC does have a bigger name than RHIT in my opinion.</p>
<p>
Nope. They do provide merit based aid to internationals.</p>
