<p>If you had to rank which of the schools ( Business, Kinesiology, Engineering, LSA, ETC) is the hardest to get into..... which one would it be... 2nd? 3rd? 4th?</p>
<p>Ross pre-admit is shaping up to be the hardest program to get into, although Musical Theater is also pretty tough as well. Ross pre-admit is expected to accept 10% of its applicants this year, with a mean SAT score well over 1400. Musical Theater accepts less than 5% of its applicants. Of course, both of those programs first admit applicants into LSA before they are considered for the next step. In terms of the colleges that admit students directly, I would say all the schools (LSA, Engineering, Kinesiology and Nursing) are roughly equally selective.</p>
<p>Well I asked because Im thinking of applying to Kinesiology, but Ive heard that its the hardest school to get into. I really want to be accepted and I dont want it to be rejected because I applied to this school because I heard its not to hard to transfer into to Kinesiology from LSA.</p>
<p>So would you agree that LSA and Kines are pretty even on selectivity?</p>
<p>They are not identically selective, but they are both selective in their own way.</p>
<p>is engineering hard to get into?</p>
<p>I don't understand the confusion. All of Michigan's colleges are top ranked and in-demand. As such, they all get to be very selective. It is not possible to compare selectivity between each college within the university since each college has its own criteria for admission, but they are all selective.</p>
<p>Gotcha</p>
<p>I guess I was just hearing false reports that Kines was MUCH more difficult to get into than lsa</p>
<p>Yea my cousin who went their for undergrad and is there for grad kept on saying that engineering was more competitive than LSA.</p>
<p>Chillin, Kines is more difficult to get into then LSA if it is obvious that the applicant is applying via Kines just to get into Michigan and then, transfer to another college within the university. Many applicants think it is easier to get into Kines so they just apply there. But Kines, like all other colleges, expect their applicants to have a purpose for applying to Kines and to have an obvious interest in and aptitude for the field.</p>
<p>oh no, I want to go into the Sports Management program in Kines... I thought it was the other way around... that people were using LSA as a road around to Kines</p>
<p>Can someone explain to me what Sports Management entails exactly? How far is it from being an agent or are they the same thing? What type of fields would I have to study. I'm just wondering because I did apply to LSA undeclared after all.</p>
<p>Hardest to get into rank:</p>
<p>1) Ross (as a freshman)
2) Engineering
3) LSA</p>
<p>Hardest to do well in: </p>
<p>1) Engineering
2) Ross
gap
3) LSA</p>
<p>For the "hardest to do well in," I guess it depends, though. It's all relative. Some person would find a math major hard while another would not. There might be many engineers who struggle as English majors, etc.</p>
<p>hardest to do well in</p>
<p>u cant tell
a major im doin counts as one, but is like 2
cell and molecular biology and biomedical engineering
for some that would be a lot harder than finance or mech engineering</p>
<p>i am only speaking in general. of course a degree in physics or math is in lsa, and it would be difficult as well. </p>
<p>But in general, the LSA curriculum allows you to take more BS classes to boost your grades, while engineering doesn't, with most classes having a B- median grade. if you put the liberal arts majors, ie. english/history/psychology/economics into an engineering curriculum, half of them will flunk, if you put the engineering kids into those liberal arts majors, they won't flunk. </p>
<p>The difference is, for the majority of LSA majors, if you do some work, you will pass and get at least a B range grade, the same cannot be said about engineering.</p>
<p>Of course half the english/history/psychology/economics majors would flunk in engineering. It's because their strength is not engineering, and they would never major in it to begin with. But I understand your point. Engineering in general is much more rigorous and draining than the humanities majors. The curve is tough, and the workload is intense.</p>
