FARTMOUTH IS A T10 SCHOOL, OK?

Dartmouth isn’t an LAC.

No, but it’s far closer to LACs than its peer unis due to its liberal arts curriculum and undergrad focus.

The Economist ranked Dartmouth as #443 and Princeton at #773. Do you believe that ranking? I don’t. Don’t just go by rankings. Also on the list you gave, Princeton is #48, and Dart isn’t in the top 50. Hardly that much of a difference, considering that Dartmouth is also smaller than Princeton and has fewer grad programs.

According to what you said, nobody should go to a LAC if they want to pursue academia.

I’m not saying Dartmouth is better than X, my point is that it’s certainly not a bad undergraduate college for academia. Thats also because your graduate program determines your academic career far more. That’s when you conduct the most meaningful and important research.
