You need to transfer, IMO to a more liberal artsy school with a focus on undergrads.

<p>I dunno, I went to CMU which is a pretty similar school to Case and I never had a problem with my professors' English. Heck, many of them were ultra-strict on our lab reports since they feel they had to learn English as a second language, so we better know it pretty darned well for it being our first.</p>
<p>I've looked into transferring but I don't want to go to a large state school, and I think a LA school 1) would be too small 2) too politically liberal, and FA is a big factor. I do not want to go to a large state school, so my transfer options are limited.
I understand that it is difficult to get FA as a transfer student. Once again, I would think the problems arising from student imaturity exist everywhere, as does subjective grading and egotistical prof's.
My question is, how much better would the above be at a different school?</p>
<p>So so so much better. I can't even begin to tell you. Also, the LACs actually have fantastic financial aid. Much better than most state schools.</p>
<p>Look at Bucknell (best choice) and maybe even Miami of Ohio. I think you are totally wrong thinking other places are like Case.</p>
<p>it is overrated. going to college won't make you rich.</p>
<p>College is what you make of it. I love love love being in college, and I'm at a big state school. It won't make you rich necessarily, but depending on what your attitude is you will get a "rich" experience</p>
<p>College is ok. It's better than HS because of the independence for the most part. You are free to choose what to do and when to do it. I also like the fact that it is mostly graded objectively instead of subjectively, my HS GPA was 3.2 and my college GPA is 3.97, in large part becasue of that. True going to college will not make you rich, pretty much the only guarentee of that is medical school. </p>
<p>Frankly I am only here for the learning experience, since my chosen profession does not really require a college degree, but I find it interesting to learn what you want to learn and not have what politicians think that you need to learn being forced down your throat like it was in high school.</p>
<p>YES! I AGREE!!
i was just thinking about that yesterday. There is not much difference except for the living on campus aspect. Idk, I mean it's not completely liek HS but like you said, certain aspects are exactly the same. I think all the hype about college was the parties and beer pong but other than that it's nothing life changing anyways</p>
<p>I've only been here for three weeks and I like it but it's not too much of a difference, that's what I've noticed.</p>
<p>Its annoying how much everyone tries to compare college to high school. Just forget about high school and go to college. If you go to college and you do the same things you did in high school, how is it going to be any different?If you expand your horizons and take advantage of all that you can, then maybe you'll have a good time.</p>
<p>OMG guys, I feel so sorry for you. Try going to med school, you'll know the pain.</p>
<p>Once again, it is because OTHER people are stuck in hs, the petty drama andbasic inability to realize the world goes beyond one individual</p>

Pennsylvania, Dartmouth, Cornell, John Hopkins, Emory, Tufts, etc...and those types of colleges with little name recognition.

<p>You're absolutely clueless if you think those schools have 'little' name recognition--especially Penn. And that's coming from someone who does believe that nothing beats a good state school, with good sports and great social life...</p>
<p>lol @ Penn-Wharton having 'little' name recognition</p>
<p>Ummm not even just Wharton...</p>
