University of Michigan-Ann Arbor Top Questions

It depends who you meet, I find there's more people who study in the library on weekends than go out and party. I was also surprised at the lack of enthusiasm a great amount of students have for the teams. And of course you will meet lots of stuck up people, but there are the good ones out there too.

Not if you attend Michigan!

The majority of Michigan students are quite smart at the University, but we learn how to manage our time so we aren't locked in a library all day.

Well, I would like to think the one that we are all really smart is :) Not everyone here is liberal, but it seems that at least 90{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of those politically active or just politcally informed and interested are.

Yes.

Yep.

I think no, were a bunch of cool smart cats. We know about politidcs and stuff but that does not make us dweebs.

No

Yes

we are smarter than you.

yes.

Not at all.

Yes--most of the time. Most students at Michigan were big fish in small ponds during high school and then when you come to Michigan everyone becomes a small fish in a big lake. So most students push themselves really hard to become a big fish again.

No, there's a lot of people who struggle to pay tuition.

Less than accurate., more than fiction.

Students are probably both less studious and less snobbish than the stereotypes suggest. There is a wide range, especially in studiousness.

Some. The Big 10 stereotypes are true about some people, but there's a ton of kids here that couldn't care less about Greek Life or football. Also, as I said before, the "ugly girls" stereotype definitely isn't true but Ann Arbor's reputation is pretty dead-on--which is what I love most about it.

I think to a certain degree, yes.

see above.

no...I mean not everyone is a beauty queen, but we have some good lookers and the nightlife is great - there is something for everyone from frats, dance clubs, bars, and house parties. And if you aren't in the mood for a party there is always something to do.
