<p>Hi guys,
Im an undgrad student in Engineering technologyin a small university and i finally got my admission into Texas Tech University and Texas A&M university, but the problem is that i can't really decide which school to attend, here are some of my reasons:</p>
<p>i think Texas Tech has a good engineering program, and the school population is quite decent, which will give me a chance to interact well with my professors.I don't really have a problem with lubbock; although i wonder if the location will affect me in the long run interms of internship and job placement.</p>
<p>We all know Texas A&M has one of the best enginnering programs in the country.But i feel that population might be a problem.The classes are much more larger and i heard the engineering classes are really challenging. The school is close to Houston which is a good thing, and also a degree from A&M gives you better opportunities.</p>
<p>i definately dont want a school where i have to struggle for everything, i understand that college is not easy but i also want a life. Please i need your honest opinions on which school to attend, so i can make my decision fast. Thank you</p>
<p>You are mostly going to get pro-Aggie responses in this forum and mine is going to be no different. While Tech is a good school, your opportunities are going to be much greater coming out of A&M. Unfortunately, that is just the way it is. Also, you mentioned you want a life. A&M is truly a special place to go to school and this is coming from someone who did not go there. It is up to you how involved you want to be. Also, as far as interaction with faculty, that is up to you as well. Sure A&M is challenging, but what things in life that are worth reaching for are not? Good luck with your decision. By the way, as you can tell by this forum, there are a lot of prospective students who want to get in and can’t. You have a great opportunity in front of you. A&M is much more selective than Tech. If you got in, then A&M thinks you can handle the challange.</p>
<p>Texas A&M has a rigorous program and difficult to complete in 4 years without AP credit or summer coursework. My advice is to shoot an e-mail with ad adviser from the appropriate engineering dept. A good conversation with an adviser will give you a better idea if you are going to “struggle for everything”. They have seen students with all kinds of abilities succeed and fail, and they may be able to tell you what the difference is.</p>
<p>Obviously A&M>TT. You’ll have time to have fun, just don’t be lazy.</p>
