@Beaudreau Thanks for your insight! I’ve come to the conclusion at this point that my decision between these two schools - if it comes to such - will be based on very personal connections with a select few groups on campus that I’m interested in. I’ll just have to visit both if I ever aim to have a legitimate understand of how they relate.
I’m so glad to hear that both of your oldest is having such success at A&M, as that certainly makes me less concerned about the GPA requirement (It’s one of the first times anyone has ever specifically given a personal testament to the fact that it is possible to achieve!). I wish your younger son all the best with his college decision.
