<p>I took a tour of wake forest in the spring and fell in love with the school. However, I've heard from several people that the it's way too much work and it's a very sink or swim environment. I have always had an outstanding work ethic and have always loved to learn. What is the academic life like at wake? Is it really as bad as I've heard? </p>
<p>You might have better luck posting this in the Wake Forest forum, but Wake Forest (and CMU) have the lowest graduation rates in the Top 25 USWNR National Universities.</p>
