<p>Thanks everyone. For anyone curious I also posted in the GT board, and got many responses. Although GT is better if you purely go by the rankings (and maybe the weather), RPI is a great school and you’re likely to have smaller classes, get to know your professors more, and generally probably feel a little more “looked after.”
Rico2, you seem to know more than many people about RPI. Can you address any of the bad press issues and do you know why RPI has fallen in the rankings? Overall I favor RPI slightly, but It’s still more of a gut feel than based on pure data.</p>
