What are your general comments?

This school really sucks. I go here and I wish I never did. The facilities are crap, and the administration does not give a damn about the students. A few professors try to make a difference, but they are helpless against the overwhelming majority of people here who don't care and are too busy to worry about your education. We get no advising, no guidance, and we get killed in the match for competitive residencies. Oh, and the students here ARE competitive. Don't let anyone lie to you. Students are competitive everywhere. There's nothing special about a school that makes it really warm and fuzzy. And though our school is pass-fail, it's a lie. Grades are retained in secret, and our ranking system is shrouded in mystery. The Dean's letter from our dean is crap and the residency directors around the country know it. If you don't get into a better school, then come here. But if you get into Columbia or Cornell, do not be fooled into coming to NYU!
