  • Some youtubers review movies, others unbox toys. But here, I'll review my school in case you wish to come here someday. Overall, I give it a good 8.5/10!

    Thank you so much for this review! WPI is one of my dream schools, and it was really nice getting a student’s inside perspective. :)

    Great video, thank you! We watched this because we had a question about how to pronounce Worcester and we wanted to hear how it was pronounced, but watched the whole video for a student who is considering the school. You did a great job with your pros, cons, and the tour. Thank you and I hope you are doing well in post-college life.

    Very useful. Wish I could find reviews of other schools that my son is looking at that are as helpful as this. I'll have my son watch it.

    • @davidcherelin4291
      @davidcherelin4291 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Since you're on, let me ask you. Is WPI strictly engineering? Our son wants to study physics, but not an engineering path. He's more interested in a PhD in theoretical physics with a good dose of philosophy and Poli-Sci. Is most everyone career focused, or are there substantial parts of the student body that are aware of the world outside, if politics and social justice issues? I'll check through your other videos.

    Thanks for the video, I found it really useful as a student who has WPI as one of their main choices. One question though, how is the food there? Are there halal, kosher, or vegetarian options?

    • @ProfessorGigs
      @ProfessorGigs  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Habeeb Ismail The dining hall had a vegetarian section when I was there. Considering that WPI has a very diverse and international student body, I would imagine that halal and kosher options are also on the table.

    Consider that it's doing career prep for these who get a bad teammate. You've got to social engineer the crap out of them just the way you would in a co-op or a job.
