Anyone have good opinions about Davidson? I'd love to hear them, since I've been looking at it.

Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

You guys have it so different than us. We have a month of exams in June and, depending on how well we do, those results solely determine whether we get into the courses we want. I've applied for ten courses by February (the most you can), but if I don't get either of my top two, I'll just repeat the year and the exams next June. Ideally, I'd love to be studying Science then branch into Neuroscience third year, but getting into the course will be really tricky. And then there's a huge demand for neuroscience as well, so yeah..
My first choice is one of the most demanding courses in the country, so I need an average of 90% in six of my seven exams. Each subject has about an average of 7% getting 90%+ so we'll see how I do xP
My second choice is still like 80% average will most likely be okay. Although I'm fairly certain I can get that.
I think I'd rather continuos assessment though (kinda going off topic...). There's a serious amount of stress on anyone in the same situation as me, but the desire for my first course has me motivated. Hopefully come August 20somethingth I'll have my first choice and will actually have time for Smogon and having a life again.

First mention of Rice in this thread :o are you going there? this is the end of my 3rd year there
A few of my friends went there and they love it.
And while I don't go to Rice (University of Houston gave a gigantic scholarship) I've been there a few times and the campus is wonderful. It's clean and there are plenty of people outside exercising and stuff. Plus the area around it is also great. As a city Houston is also fantastic for internships, especially if you are doing engineering.
Basically, come to Houston!
I lived in houston as a child, so I decided to move away to Duke. many of my friends go to Rice though and whenever I'm in town I always go visit. It's a great place and sometimes (read: a lot of the time) I think I'd have been happier going there.
I only applied to Rutgers (university of NJ) and managed to get in. I'm in my sophomore year now. College goes way too fast to be honest. @@
this thread needs more chi-town action!
What about the University of Toronto , i am planning to do after graduation studies there
any opinions ?
