I'd like to bring in a little dose of reality here for all of you students who just read those positive comments about UW. I was a student here at UW and was extremely disappointed in the way that I was treated. I'm not going to go into detail about what happened to me, but I would just like to make it clear that Madison is by far not a perfect school, even though they'd like to think so.Madison is extremely obsessed with rankings. They seem to think that because US World and News thinks they're a good school, they really are (this is obviously not true). A good school does not propogate itself solely on rankings. Rankings does not make a university good, especially since many of the ranking systems are flawed. The fact of the matter is, the only people who think Madison is special are the people who go here. Please don't be fooled by all of the positive things you have heard about this university. Good things happen to a select few—not everyone. You can get just as good of an education (if not better) at any other university. If you truly are a good student, you will succeed—no matter where you go. There are plenty of good schools elsewhere. Please do not be sucked in by UW's "public Ivy" mentality.To be frank, if you are thinking about Madison, please think again.
