What do you think of Virginia Tech overall?

[chuckywang]

What do you think of their academic reputation, of their big sports programs (football and basketball), of their size, of their government, basically anything. Would you put them in the top 10% of all universities?

Top 10%? That's probably pushing a bit. Top 20% for sure.

Of course I'm an FSU grad so my opinion will mean nothing here

overrated football program. I'd say top 20-30%.

I mean Va Tech consistently sells out their football games, so they have a very passionate bunch of students and alumni. They sell out basketball games too. That has to count for something.

don't they have a big g5 supercomputer or something?

I will require pics of Virgina Tech college girls before I can make a judgement.

depends on what your looking for.

VT engineering program is top and its business school is top too. not top 10.
the girls are good looking too. 60-40 spilt too.

baseketball games really dont sell sell out. football games do though.

i just graduated from there. very good school.
