why? im curious

I visited it and wasnt fond of it at all. It was beyond freezing, the students seemed miserable and ive been told that they, for some reason, seem to have a heavier workload then other T14's. It was also not in a great location (in my opinion). Also it is becoming pretty known that Cornell is falling in a sense. Many think that UT/UCLA and especially Vandy are better options. I am not sure about the last parts, i just know you should DEFINITELY visit it before you make a decision because it isnt a place for everyone. Then again is anywhere? Besides HYS of course :p

When i went it wasnt just cold. I love going skiing and snowboarding. But there... it was like beyond cold. Dont know how to describe it but just walking around my face was numb and lips were frozen. Just annoying.

+1. This is evident in their class medians:
Vandy 3.72 / 169
UCLA 3.77 / 168
Cornell 3.70 / 168
