Enrollment Sucks, Profs Are Good, Classes Are Huge, Difficulty ... Overrated
I was surprised when I first started class at Cornell how easy it was. I flew through without a challenge. Given Cornell's excellent reputation, I would have thought that the classes would have been a lot tougher, but I guess that just speaks to the diversity of students at the university. Some students are brilliant, others make you wonder why most of your high school class did not get in. One thing that struck me is that i did not have a class under 20. I went to an elite private high school where the average class size was under 10 students. The sudden growth in the number of students in my lectures was shocking to say the least, and was he real challenge that I had to overcome. The profs were good, not great, but good. The course enrollment system needs work. We currently use an online course enrollment software that crashes whenever course enrollment time comes around, it is really frustrating.
