<p>I think he means Aspects such as Academics..............sports etc.; i mean well yeah probably there are not better in every single aspect....like NYU Tisch school of the arts is probably better than Yale art school.....s0o0o0....I don't know but we're all entitled to our own opinions just as your entitled to yours kk....so if you feel prestige is not that important then OK..freedom of thought....doesn't mean someone else shouldn't feel that way......</p>
<p>"like NYU Tisch school of the arts is probably better than Yale art school"</p>
<p>-Better at what???? You throw around the word "better" like it has some univeral meaning.</p>
<p>"I don't know but we're all entitled to our own opinions just as your entitled to yours kk"</p>
<p>-We are indeed entitled to our own opinions, but not our own facts. If you're going to claim that something is "better" than something else, you should be able to back up your claim with some kind of evidence.</p>
<p>back it up to who?
YOU NEED to do your own research and come back && tell me what you think........If evidence is so important to you......go on a little investigation.....Hey who know?.Maybe I'm wrong...its up to you to prove that.....Tell Yale && NYU I said whats up!</p>
<p><em>Adios KK</em></p>
<p>"back it up to who?

<p>I'm not making any claims about schools being better than others; I need neither research nor prove anything. Your posts lack any kind of intellectual depth; it's like you don't think before you write things here. Maybe after you're actually in college you'll gain 'better' reading and writing skills.</p>
<p>you're the one thats so bent on evidence,....I already did my research work...if you want to know whether a school is really better...go research.......rather than asking people to do your lazy work && prove it!...&& stop getting so flustered with this topic</p>
<p>Duhhh!...the internet is not created for nothing</p>
<p>"Why are you so flustered with this damn subject!?".....</p>
<p>-I'm more flustered with your nonsense posts than the subject..... Most everything you write on CC is ridiculous. You seem to have NO idea what you're talking about and it's annoying. </p>
<p>"did you get rejected from an elite school or something?"</p>
<p>-Yep, that's what it is. I'm just angry about my getting rejected and taking it out on you..... </p>
<p>"&& theres no need to keep reiterating everything I write; you're just wasting precious energy"</p>
<p>-I'm not wasting energy; I simply refuse to allow you to pass off your absurd beliefs as fact- or even as logic for that matter.</p>
<p>"&& Yeah; I can put money on it that you're going to post another statement trying to be defensive...."</p>
<p>-Well, at least you got something right....</p>
<p>MY Opinion is mine && yours is Yours [Case Closed]
Thanks for proving to me that you're not worth my time</p>
<p>....therefore KK you're <em>dismissed</em></p>
<p>P.S Extremely Ironic that the word Absurd is coming from "YOU"</p>
<p>lol at this thread</p>
<p>So Authentic</p>
<p>It's even more ridiculous that you change EVERY post you make after I respond. It only works toward proving my point: YOU DON'T THINK BEFORE YOU WRITE.</p>
<p>And you want to go to Columbia huh? God bless affirmative action.</p>
<p>Don't Try to contradict.....Its called editing you Cheeseball!
What was Northwestern smoking when they accepted you?</p>
<p>Oh && KK...I read your Biography..it says ""I'm a Wildcat.....Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!" </p>
<p>I think to myself .......<em>No Wonder</em></p>
<p>Alright, KK and So Authentic, shake hands. Let's not get so personal, ok?</p>
<p>I have to agree with KK though. Not every top school is "better" than others. You know, I remember there being a thread (actually, I started it =D) and it was called true dreams. It was about true dream schools and I told everyone to include a school that might not be top 25 but they'd love to go to. St. Johns got A LOT of votes and it's not a top school. It has small classes, great academics, a wonderful faculty, etc, etc, and THAT is why people said it. You know what some of them also said? "They'd consider it more if it was more prestigious." So Authentic, can you agree that that just sucks; that people don't consider schools because they're not prestigeous. I won't lie, I do it sometimes myself too and prestige shouldn't mean anything if you LOVE a school.</p>
<p>So Authentic, I also wonder where your getting your statistics from. There once was this big thread that said (backed up by reasearch) that in 20yrs, people with the same IQ, GPA, SATs, and a whole load of things ended up making the same money no matter if they graduated from some state school or from an ivy league.</p>
<p>Yeah I know......My research came frorm various sources; TV; newspapers etc....watch CNN...they talk about it aslo... && from the get-go I never said that prestige is what matters...I simply said that there are some students that look for prestige over other things...I too look for prestige but its not the only thing.....My Major is actually whats the most important...I would never in my wildest life vouch that prestige is what counts Only...&& yeah the whole thing with St. johns sucks but i geuss alot of people like to be associated with elitism.......I'll check out your thread right now</p>
<p>&& just to be clear, my reasons for Going to Columbia is as follows.....
Economic Major; Fancy new York setting; my sweet home; Greek architecture; && of course its an IVy......so0o0o0o</p>
<p>lol dont get me wrong, I love Brown personally but I'm starting to expand my horizons a bit.</p>
