potent jewel Yea ngl everyone seems to like it except for us news

I heard some part of it was because of the fact that tufts either didn't have a database of some of the info they use for the ranking criteria. Also US news is kinda bullshit

yeah it's def not reliable

i mean part of it is just like time, also tufts students in general are pretty incongruous with the rest of the city just because they’re pretty obvious so i wouldn’t worry too too much but i would guess if you looked like you were nervous or felt out of place that’s why they could tell
