i heard a lot of people from NJ go there, so i think its NJ friendly right? no rivalry or anything?

well, I'll say there are a lot of Virginians who are kind of weirded out by the amount of people from NJ and NY, but I wouldn't say it's hostile or anything. It's more like "Why the hell do you all pick JMU?" not "GTFO." There are tons of people from NJ and NY though, so you'll be sure to find people from near your hometown. My 30 person comm. class has like 8 people from Long Island...my other classes are probably 70% Virginians.

SATs are the devil.

don't see why they would base univeristy employment on one test...imagine if thats the one thing you fuck up in your life.

c312 · 02-15-2006, 11:07 AM

it's not based on the SAT entirely, it's also based on grades, extra curricular activities, etc..

another thing that should mean absolutly nothing.

why? both the SATs and extra curricular activities give an indication of how hard a worker someone is and how smart they are/what they know.

Some people are not from well-off parents and need to work during school instead of taking extra curricular activities...not everybody has time...and hell they are a waste of time unless it's a sport.

people who have to work to support their family during high school are generally not the ones going to college though...

Wow...supporting family i not exactly what I meant...I moreso meant sving money so they could afford school.

I don't know...Im one who hates debts and having no debts after uni is my goal...im one of the only ones I know who have no loans out yet...but ive worked my ass off.

c312 · 02-15-2006, 11:26 AM

ok, i get your point then. I still think the SAT is a good thing though, personally, I only did one extra curricular activity and it was a sport and I still got into JMU.
