The social life is horrible. The girls suck. There are a few house parties, but they also are pretty horrible. If you like sitting in your room all day playing video games and think girls have cooties you'll love it here. All my friends hate it and stress loads are through the roof. A lot of the school drinks a lot just because it sucks so bad.

The teachers are pretty horrible. Often I sit through several lectures and think this is really hard and don't learn much at all. Then i sit down for a few hours and go through the book and realize how simply it really is. Its almost like they teach you horribly in class so you teach yourself out of the class. A lot of my friends came here because they heard it was good, and the app to get in had no fee and no essay.

The academics and job market seem pretty good though. People keep telling me its amazing. Hopefully it is, and thats really the only reason i'm still here.

Pretty much, everything sucks but the academics. A lot of people are weird, and golden is a city for old people and crackheads. There are 3 bars in the city which people often go to, but they still suck. Adderall is huge here. Myself and friends often stay up for a few days during finals to not fail them.

If you hate yourself its a good school, otherwise I recommend going somewhere else for engineering. Unless your doing an Earth sciences related field (Petro, Geology, etc.) pick a different school.
