Princeton crushed my self confidence. I dropped out after my freshman year. I failed everything that I tried and no one was there to help me. I became extremely depressed and spent most of time in the women's center because they had free meditation classes.

Many of my teachers told me that I was stupid, directly and indirectly. My math professor said that I was immature and that I should probably drop his class. He had a thick accent so I could barely understand the snide comment let alone his lectures. When I asked to borrow notes for the same math class people flat out refused. Finding study groups was very difficult because the students were clicky and competitive. I failed a geoscience test and when I went for help from the professor all he had to say to me was "deal with it."- so If you're looking for a nurturing academic environment, Princeton is not the place.

If you do end up going to Princeton, the best advice I could give is to GET HELP as soon as you get on campus. Get to know the deans of your college- they are your advocates. Check out counseling services- believe it or not everyone on campus sees them. Go to the study groups in Frist- they are crucial for survival. Make sure you are aware of all of the student resources right away. By the time I learned about how to help myself, it was too late.

I find it hard to believe that someone who was supposedly accepted to Princeton could not spell clique-y. Actually, clique-y is not a real word…

Can u plz tell me whats the second option after Princeton, is it Stevens institute of technology? and what was your second option?

Rows=6 cols=34 wrap=virtual @previous poster what does Stevens got to do with Princeton? They are not even on the same level. For Eng. Rice or Northwestern is much better.
