so who on here doesnt go to an IVY or a highly prestigious college

<p>^^lol…you’re going to die…c’mon now it’s Tech…the worst school ever</p>

<p>lol… pi + dungeons and dragons > girls</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>oh hell nah, hahaha…i saw kids down there like that. They would come out of their dark rooms for the first time in days, squint at the light, and just keep to the wall. Im def not one of them</p>

<p>I just figure the extra 8 classes or so to get the double major, could be worth it…we’ll see</p>

<p>Excuse me what do you mean by “gemstone”?</p>

<p>Its a program at Maryland-CP. Basically its an Honors program for the kids in the Honors program</p>

<p>^To go deeper…you live in separate housing and form a team amongst the people in your year to do a research project. You put in the work, write a huge report your senior year, and then present to a bunch of staff and other people.</p>

<p>its for extremely smart kids only</p>

<p>haha, I wonder how many people actually turn it down but still go to UMD…</p>

<p>^At orientation I talked to about 5 kids who also turned it down, and five more who didn’t, but say they’re probably going to drop it after freshman year. Mostly because they’re engineers and didn’t want to take on any more work.</p>
