<p>Any thoughts?</p>
<p>Good school?</p>
<p>i have have a related question...
if im thinking of a business major (either internationally related or economics or possiblely management)
boston college vs boston university? (for undergrad)
(esp in terms of getting into graduate school or possibly a job)</p>
<p>bc carroll all the way</p>
<p>I'm applying to BC as well. Hopefully my SAT retake score and my ECS balance out my disgraceful GPA.</p>
<p>I really hope you aren't actually a mom who is doing research for your child instead of your child doing the research on his/her own.</p>

<p>there is nothing wrong with parents helping their kids with searching for schools, ESPECIALLY if they are paying tuition.</p>
<p>Even if they are paying tuition its the kids attending the school. Theres nothing wrong with helping once in a while, but the parents here in cc definitely over do it.</p>
<p>Melon: Why because you do it?</p>
<p>Theres nothing wrong with parents over-doing college research for their kids. Sometimes, I wish my parents would have even a fraction of the interest of parents here at CC have.</p>
<p>Anyway, lets not change the topic of thread.</p>
<p>Oh please, there is absolutely everything wrong with parents over-doing college research for their kids. When a kid is about to enter college, he/she is at a point in their lives when they should make these decisions for themselves. The kid controls his/her own future, not the parent. Why not let their kid take the initiative to do the college research instead? Being lazy and making a parent do the research just doesn't cut it.</p>
<p>well i think it is like this
kid makes a big list of school
parent find which school is "worth" the money </p>
<p>makes sense
50k for a garbage school is a bad investment
in a sense , this is the parent's biggest investment dicision</p>
<p>BC is pretty good, it actually has banks recruitng or at least visitng there</p>
<p>no im actually a student, but I would not want to pay for my kids to attend a school not worth it finacially if there are better fits instate.</p>
<p>to me it seems like a lot of the people who end up ****ing up in college are those people who didnt know any responsibility because their parents did everything for them.</p>
<p>As for the BC question according to some of the posts on this site it actually does get recruited a little by banks</p>
