Review of SUNY College of Agriculture and Technology at Cobleskill
from Jefferson, NY
Describe your college in three sentences.
i am very impressed with the level of education i've recieved here. the faculty of the plant science dept. are outstanding on both an academic and personal level. i'm learning more than i ever thought i would, and having alot of fun doing it; we get hands-on experience as well as lectures.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
don't be afraid of your professors, if you like your advisor, chances are you will become friends, if you don't, it's ok to change. if you take entomology, start your bug collection early. try to arrange your schedule so you're taking at least one class you can ace, one 4.0 can save your gpa in case you tank other classes.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
this is college. some classes may seem easier than others, some harder, but you will have to work. if you're falling behind or can't understand something, tell your professor right away so he/she can help you.
