Funniest thing I've ever read on PonyFans, and I've been here for eight years.
35% of our 2013 freshman class graduated in the Top 10% compared to tech's 27%. Our average freshman SAT (math + cr only) is 1140 while Tech's is 1100.
I wasn't questioning the accuracy of your statement.

Bragging about having better academics than tortilla tech is pretty much equivalent to bragging about beating a mentally challenged child in checkers.

Thanks Webmaster. There are some here that cherish that "my way or the highway" attitude

That quote is referring to all those who refer to themselves as: liberals, independents, progressives or libertarians, basically one in the same. Thats why conservatives best option is to take the religious route and try to not bite into their traps. Just write your opinion, perspective, viewpoint, argument and hope those who preach open-mindness and desire for a broad community actually aspire to their goal for society.

At the end of the day, if I had a gun to my head and had to choose one, I'd go to Tech. Higher ranked school, better alumni network, and more opportunities across the state, not just in Houston.

I know. I'm just bringing it to the perspective of what's going on in the forum with people that don't tolerate my opinions and just write me off as a troll lol
