Tough choice: A&M or Tech??

Saw my young cousin, a recent high school graduate, at a family reunion. He was torn because he was accepted at both A&M and Texas Tech.

My Aggie uncle immediately started reeling off all of the "advantages" of going to A&M: Aggie network, US College News and Rankings, etc. etc. etc.

My cousin turned to me.

I said: "Two words. Scoreboard."

That did it. My cousin will be a Red Raider this fall and have his Guns Up!

Side note: Since A&M is supposedly "superior" to Tech academically, why was my cousin accepted to both schools? Makes you wonder...

Since he made a decision based on that, then I'd say he made the right one.

Tell him to make sure however that it's very important to have an even distribution of sauce and cheese (FIFY protected), and to leave about an inch of crust at the ends.

It's pretty sad if you chose between schools based off of a football game.

Tard High vs Texas A&M University...yeah, real tough choice.

Btw, A&M is superior to tard, but that doesn't mean it's possible to get into both. Simply be top 10% in your graduating class in a public high school and Texas and you can be an AG, sip or tard.

But alas, if he's dumb enough to chose a college based off of a football game, then he belongs at tard.

Scoreboard = The only thing that matters.

Okay tard. Looks like all the tards should transfer to CU then.

This argument would make sense if he got into A&M, but was turned down by Tech. Of course the inferior school is going to accept all the students that get into the superior school. But the superior school doesn't accept all the students that get into the inferior school.

I think you are making up the story just to put some excitement into this forum. We know that no blood relative of yours is smart enough to get into A&M.

Sorry to call you out.

Hey if I had to settle for tech I'd probably feel the same way too.

Scoreboard looks like one word....

You just made your uncle's point.

Also, if one is accepted to a top school, they most likely will be accepted to the lower school. The reverse is not necessarily true. Obviously the TASP test does not have a logic component.

I think your cousin can be considered medically retarded now.

So, if using this Tard's logic... if he was accepted to all A&M, t.u., and Tardyland where does he go?

My guess is that since he picked Tardyland he will prolly just go to Tarleton instead of realizing his logic is retarted.
