probly because it's one of the few degrees that will pay for itself after just a few years of work if you're a middle class white dude

>>7438778
Lel, people ruin their lives to be firmly middle class. I know plenty of people who studied Econ or humanities who make more than the average mid-career engineer two years out of college by working in finance or consulting. Hell, I know marketers who make more than a typical state school electrical engineer.

OP how is the social life at Tufts? I played you guys in lacrosse and loved the campus, is there much to do there?

>>7438860
Not OP, but it's pretty good, especially if you're in a frat or on a team. loads of people live just off campus and throw house parties, plus Davis Square and Boston are great for bars and various events.

The best is going to Wellesely and getting laid with weird autist bisexual girls though.

Ayyyy that's good news. What do you study?

I was a pothead throughout undergrad but I truly believe I would've had at least a 3.6 final if I had made better scheduling decisions my first two years. I didn't even know what pass/fail classes were until i was deep into my major/minor courses. Eh, hindsight is 20/20

Sure, but not all humanities, econ, finance or marketing people make that much. Engineers are pretty much guaranteed above average wages for fairly easy work.

I'm a senior, waiting on acceptance/rejection letters. Top schools for me are UVA, William & Mary, and Yale (long shot but hoping legacy counts for something).

Also, you plebs should share your SAT scores. They're more fun to brag about than GPA.

I'm a townie who lives near the school and I hate every one of you faggots.

>>7439562
Ayy another Ivy Leaguer in here. :^)

Only difference is that I go to the superior one, Princeton.

You all must be really unsatisfied with your lives to be posting your fucking GPA on an anonymous image board.
I'm just going to ignore these types of threads from now on. Way too depressing.

>>7439448
Did your sibling or parent(s) go to Yale? How did they like it and is your relative like? Rich, stuck-up, privileged, and totally a faggot, right? We all know Harvard is better.

>>7439657
You mean we're all really unsatisfied with our lives to be posting on 4chan

>>7439634
Nobody cares what you think, townie scum. This neighborhood isn't poor and depressing because of the students.

>>7439661
That's obvious though

>>7439654

It's ok, we can both sleep soundly with the burning regret of going to the two ivy league school's with grade deflation

Not that it's all that hard to get c's in every class like I do, but it certainly makes me spend more time in the library than I'd like

>>7438961
How white do they come?

>>7439728
How white is your cum? :^)

>>7439719
Yeah, my dad pressured me to get into Princeton :( He's an alum and a fucking faggot. I wanted to go to Brown instead desu.

>>7439730

Very

>>7439738
Brown sucks. What's the matter with you?

>>7439742
Fuck you. I go to Princeton and the people suck ass. Brown is cool because Emma Watson went there.

Public HS, 3.8 GPA

>history
>2.6
dude. why? Are you depressed? Do you need a hug? Want a blowjob while you're at it? I'm genuinely sorry for you anon :(

>>7439745
Emma Watson didn't mingle with the common students that much, and flaked on her student cast mates constantly to the point that people resented having her in their plays and some refused to cast her. Also Providence is a shithole.

The truth is that the people suck ass at every elite university because they're either high-strung strivers who all hate each other or lazy aristocrats. Just chill out and ride that tiger of privilege and opportunity.

>>7439783
ADHD and depression. Every single professor has told me that I am one of the best writers and most analytical minds they've had, but I just don't like writing papers. I don't do drugs, I don't go to parties, I just sit alone in my studio apartment and play videogames, read, and sleep. The only reason I haven't been expelled entirely is because I've gotten extremely good at making excuses for why such-and-such an assignment is late.

Case in point, I took a class on Film Analysis last year. My final paper was submitted a month late, well into the next quarter entirely. The professor wrote me back saying, "I wasn't planning on even reading this paper, but I'm glad I did. If you had submitted this on time, it easily would have been an A+ paper. As it stands, I'll notify the Dean to change your grade to a C-."

i dont understand how people can have a lower college gpa than high school gpa. college is so much easier, it's just exams rather than a million pointless assignments you have to keep turning in.

>>7439814
>my studio apartment
In Chicago? Kinda jelly. I'm pretty well off but I've always lived with roommates because the rent for a studio or one-bedroom seems like such a rip.

>>7439830
State school pleb detected. My alma mater made sure professors assigned written assignments, presentations and comprehensive exams in most courses. Saying its "just exams" ignores how much tougher a professor can make an exam with a little effort.

>>7439830
In my case, it was just the loss of structure. I can only really work in extremely structured environments. If you leave me to my own devices, I will just ignore and avoid every deadline and assignment. In high school, I could tame that. I devoted as much time to homework as possible: always took a study hall, cut gym class for another study hall, went to the library during lunch, did homework in other classes. And it was never the homework that had just been assigned. My system worked like a triage tent, so I was always working on something that was due in the very next period. If I had two things that I couldn't both get done in time, I'd just work on the one that counted for more of my grade. "Studying for a test" meant skimming through the entire chapter and memorizing the important bits in ten minutes just before class. I consistently got As on all of my tests.

>>7439842
It is a complete ripoff, but my parents paid for my entire four years at college. And besides, a $1,000/month studio is actually cheaper than on-campus housing, if you can believe that.

Wanted the Ivy phil/lit double major but got strongly rejected. Surprising because I though they would let me in because I'm black and interested in the humanities. Affirmative Action ain't shit homies tbqh.

What were your standardized test scores? A 3.9 GPA means almost nothing when applying to an Ivy unless you went to an elite prep school.

I was mostly joking, I didn't do muchoutside of curriculum work/volunteering in high school, and only really started reading/writing during Junior year. It was mostly my own laziness that did me in.
