“There so much workQuite BrightBiology
There so much work and often there is very little reward (good grades) for the amount of work you put in. Also there is no break in the work; every day the professors continue to pile on more work as if they think you are only taking their class.

“I LOVE Cornell!! It wasn't my first choiceBrightBiology
I LOVE Cornell!! It wasn't my first choice when I was applying to colleges, and I definitely didn't think I'd end up here, but now, having completed my freshman year, I found that I love it. I made great, amazing friends, and I made Dean's List for the spring semester!! Cornell's campus is "gorges", and there's so much to do, even though it seems so isolated (Ithaca is 5 hours away from NYC). I think a car is a definite plus, but it's not necessary, because Ithaca has a great bussing system that takes you anywhere you need to go on campus and Ithaca, and they're free at night. CORNELL ROCKS!

“Cornell gave me a unique opportunity not onlyBiology
Cornell gave me a unique opportunity not only to test myself against the brightest bio and engineering students in the country, but to find out what I was made of. The bio program isn't for the weak of will, I rarely had a weekend free of study, but for the serious academian or someone on a quest to prove something to themselves and learn a great deal in the process, I highly recommend it.
