people wearing vneck tshirts with massive amounts of chesthair sticking out of them definately should not be trusted.

Internship? You're set for life.

Actually, he probably is, techguy. Those internships almost always turn into job offers at the Accounting firms. For A&M and UT Business grads anyway.

Great, then he's almost ready to buy an internet Jag.

Besides, the accounting firms read every issue of the USN&WR. They are none too pleased to see atm slipping to tier 2. Maybe when the new magazine comes out, they'll restructure the hiring policies again.

A&M isn't slipping to Tier 2. But whatever makes you feel like your school sucks less is fine with me.

Oh I forgot, the guys on this board decided to move the cutoff from tier 1 to tier 2 when atm's ranking dropped. So what happened? Did the students get dumber or did the faculty quit educating as well?

Another victim of a tier 3 education. Sad.

Didn't atm used to be in the top 50 like UT? What happened? What are they doing differently in collieville?

Ttechguy,

A&M was in the Top 50 when UT wasn't, and vice versa. The most recent edition has A&M 8 or so spots behind texas:

46. Texas
62. A&M

*Its only 8 spots due to all the ties in between.

Fact is, this is the area of town we live in (better public schools in the country), and you can't afford the real estate here.

ttechgirl,
Do you understand the concept of a "tie?"
ttechguy
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Ties or not, there's still 15 schools between atm and UT.

AND NONE OF THEM ARE TECHNOLOGICAL.

Game. Set. Match.

You guys are falling fast....you're 1 tier away from UT and 1 tier away from us.

Lol. You always do excellent work in these ridiculous academic threads, techguy.

ttechguy,
you're an idiot. You have no basis for that statement at all. Fact is, the only thing we are going to do over the coming years is RISE...infusion of money from the BILLION dollar capital campaign that we've already surpassed (I know Techies..a billion is a hard concept to grasp for a school that doesn't even sniff that with its TOTAL endowment...we did in 5 years). Additional faculty, etc...Tech may rise too, but really...what else could they possibly do??

Save it for the interview. Just bring a copy of an older USN&WR when atm was in the top 50 and they'll hire you on the spot.

SAT: 1300 Verbal - 750 Other - 550
ACT: 26
private school, did not consider A&M.

Here's the deal, the difference between the average Tech student and average Aggie student seems to be about 30 SAT points. Is that it? Is that what you're basing all this huffing and puffing on? Another words, the difference between an 1150 and an 1180 makes you a genius Aggie versus a retarded Red Raider? Good points there.
