I have been only hearing good things about Tufts. However, the class size is 175. Does this bother anyone? I feel like Tufts is just churning out tons of dentists.

smaller than NYU! 👍

Yep, you are right. For some reason NYU didn't show up on the predents ranking of class size. I guess NYU is the big one then.

I have a friend who goes to Tufts and he says there is no problem whatsoever with chair availability. The lecture hall has large lcd tvs every few rows for the people who like to sit farther back. Students get plenty of attention, as Tufts is very big on mentoring apparently (71% of students report having been mentored). Also, for struggling students they have personal tutors.

what's so bad about going to a school that has a large class size? as long as faculty to student ratio stays low its fine.
