Amherst Academic Life
Classes aren't too hard, it's just that the students are smart so it forces you to do your best work. The professors are pretty solid, I've had some good and some bad. If you are outgoing with your professors they will help you and talk to you anywhere.
Amherst's Student Body
Students at Amherst seem just like students at any other college. They are some that are politically active, very studious, athletic, and many other types. The nice thing is that students of different groups interact a lot in campus.
Amherst Student Activities + Social Life
Since it is a small school, but it still has a large number of varsity sports, a big percentage of the population is involved in athletics. Freshman year it is easy to get to know people because they leave there door open and stop to say hi all the time. If you want to party at Amherst, there are plenty of opportunities to party, but if you don't there are many other things to do.
