It's CHYMPS.

<p>I'm sick of people calling it HYPSMC!!!! WHY???? It sounds like you're ranking it based on prestige. CHYMPS is a way better way to go. Plus it's more fun to type.</p>

<p>lol...it's like CHONPS, components in organic molecules: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Sulfur!</p>

<p>That's exactly what I thought when I saw that. Gosh, I'm a nerd.</p>

<p>Hey, that saved me during the AP Env Test and I'm proud of it.</p>

<p>I like PYMPS more
Princeton Yale MIT Penn Stanford.
Harvard is overrated.</p>

<p>Wasn't USNews also telling us about CHYMPS?</p>

<p>For all I know, USNews = CHYMPS. End of story.</p>

<p>hahaha
i like PYMPS!!!
thats friggin perfect</p>

<p>Such a CCer.;)</p>

<p>Pfft... stealing my idea, I see, mj93: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=307168&highlight=CHYMPS%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=307168&highlight=CHYMPS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I was just publicizing it for the rest of the world to see :D</p>

<p>I'm still for PYMPS</p>

<p>Me too. PYMPS ftw.</p>

<p>PYMPS here too
but what is the C in CHYMPS?</p>

<p>Columbia I think...or Cornell...I'm leaning towards Columbia.</p>

<p>Caltech.</p>

<p>Everybody loves PYMPS.</p>

<p>Caltech is much more prestigious than Columbia and Cornell and is ranked higher on USNWR and was #1 one year on USNWR. However, PYMPS is still my acronym.</p>

<p>Hahaha saying we're all CHYMPS?</p>

<p>We should still include Harvard in PYMPS. Did you know that if you take out the "var" in Harvard, it's "Hard"?</p>

<p>Hard PYMPS</p>

<p>I vote for PHYPMS with H silent.</p>

<p>earliest use of CHYMPS</p>
