<p>what i was trying to say was BEST SCHOOL never exists...Imagine getting into harvard to study an 'unknown' course and getting into uchicago to study econs..you can't really say which school is better can you? to me i am just happy to be able to spend my next 4 years in uchicago..</p>
<p>oh yea BnB, if u wanna know, my other choices besides Duke are uva,nyu stern,umich honors,uiuc,washu....</p>
<p>then the University of Chicago is the best school</p>
<p>.......para ti</p>
<p>Esquared, seeing as I won't get off the waitlist. Will you help me pay for my college?</p>
<p>Haha...</p>
<p>I suppose I could try...but you might not like many of my fundraising ideas</p>
<p>Esquared saves the day yet again...</p>
<p>I have 48 hrs left to decide, and I'm debating between UChi, Princeton, Stanford, and Penn. So gimme a break. Any top tier school, you're going to get an amazing education. In the end, ignoring financial issues, the choice is about where you fit in the best. Because that's where you'll learn the best. And enjoy yourself the most.</p>
<p>SAT scores are a lousy measure of anything. Their highest correlation is with ACT scores, I believe. Or GRE's. They're tests. That's all. A trophy sitting on my bookshelf says I can memorize spellings better than most people in the nation. Big effing whoop. There is no universal measure of intelligence, and we're assuming there is. You can't define which school has the smartest people. Period. You can't even define smart.</p>
<p>Acceptance rates...jeez, why does this one even matter? Most of us vary in intelligence within a purely normal range, and it's barely noticeable. Reminds me of the Steve Martin comment about Mensa: "I used to worry about the arbitrary 132 cutoff point, until I met someone with an IQ of 131, and to be perfectly honest, he was a bit slow on the uptake." There are so many other factors affecting intelligence that to assume that a high acceptance rate means idiots got in is phenomenally stupid.</p>
<p>Different schools appeal to different people. That. is. all. So let's stop with the bashing already. If people at Chicago are really this angry and bitter, we're all in for a very fun four years.</p>
<p>wow!!! tough choices...good luck!!!=)</p>
<p>I think all of that was just so megalo could mention that spelling thing</p>
<p>Hahaha...
BIG EFFIN WHOOP!
Good luck deciding, let us know :-)</p>
<p>Hahaha, Esquared, yes, you got it. I heard somewhere that spelling turned you on. This is all a devious plot to get you into bed with me.</p>
<p>its getting quite steamy in here.
someone bring out the candlelight and some lube.</p>
<p>I've heard every action (any thing at all: opening a peanut butter jar, beating a child) is somehow ultimately directed towards attemtping to have intercourse with me.</p>
<p>because you're the flaming object of desire of men and women all over the world/uchicago.</p>
<p>Hahaha, they can't have him. He's mine. Esquared, I have something special in mind for prom night;)</p>
<p>dammit megalo. taking esquared from right under my eyes.
can't we share him?</p>
<p>What do you think I meant by something special, cookiemonkey?;) We can share:)</p>
<p>by something special.... something splendidly exotic (and/or erotic)
am i right or am i right?
sounds like a winner
count me in :D</p>
<p>Brings a whole new meaning to the term "O-Week."</p>
