i always thought the class size of UMDNJ was a plus..that was one of the main reasons why i applied there...now that they are increasing the class size it doesnt appeal to me as much..

I'm curious where this info came from as there definitely is a curriculum change planned but I do not know of any increase in student body size. If it's going to increase here it certainly won't be by much though.

I heard they scrapped that idea. If not, I would like to see where they would stuff more students in, our classrooms are cozy.
