I graduated from FSU December 2002. Since then I joined the military as an officer, was injured and discharged, then got a good job as a sysadmin. FSU was a very fun school, your average large state school. The coursework was challenging, but not overly challenging. It did not give me enough real world experience and most of what I learned did not help me find a job. It served me better in gaining an audience (combined with my short military experience) with companies to show that I was able to add some value to their company. As stated above, FSU did a poor job of preparing me for the job market. I did not know enough applicable job skills for my particular field. If I could do it again, I would've still gone to FSU for my degree, but I would've made an effort to get extra education outside of FSU (professional certification courses). Those were not available when I was at FSU. For the HS students, if you are looking for a fun place to party, FSU is a good school. I had a lot of good, somewhat crazy, times there. If you are looking for a respectable university that will help you in the real world, FSU will do that too. FSU is not MIT, but they aren't a mail order university either. Overall: B.
