<p>I'm not looking at prep schools, but I'm really curious what each school is like. Like the typical description of each school (as in "UChicago is intellectual" etc. for the prep schools). What are the top schools? What are the different personalities and strengths at each? Thanks!</p>
<p>Here's a satirical list of Boarding school stereotypes, it should give you an idea.</p>
<p>Quote:
HOW MANY STUDENTS DOES IT TAKE TO CHANGE A LIGHTBULB AT:</p>
<p>-ST. PAUL'S: Three - one to screw it in and two to sculpt the old one into a bong.</p>
<p>-ANDOVER: One - He holds the bulb and the world revolves around him. (lol)</p>
<p>-EXETER: Twenty - a committee composed of students from every possible ethnic group to screw it in unison.</p>
<p>-GROTON: None - Their butlers do it for them.</p>
<p>-HOTCHKISS: Three - one to screw in the lightbulb and two more to screw him "Hotchkiss Style."</p>
<p>-LOOMIS: Two - One to change the bulb and one to complain about how if they were at a better school the lightbulb wouldn't go out.</p>
<p>-PROCTOR: Three-one to stare at the light bulb in a confused manor, one to run and get his learning skills teacher, and the teacher to call maintnence.</p>
<p>-CHOATE: Seven - One to change the light bulb and six to throw a party because he didn't screw it in upside down this time.</p>
<p>-DEERFIELD: Four - one to change it and three to pick out the perfect J. Crew outfit for the occasion.</p>
<p>-TAFT: Six - one varsity athlete to change it and five of his friends to help him with his geometry homework.</p>
<p>-MILTON: Two - One to screw it in perfectly, and another to kill himself when he finds out that the first guy did it better than him.</p>
<p>-GOVERNOR DUMMER: Twelve - six to hike to the nearest village to buy a new one, six to figure out the directions, and one to plow the fields and feed the oxen while the others are occupied.</p>
<p>-NOBLES: 301 - One to screw it in and three hundred to be really lame.</p>
<p>-LAWRENCEVILLE: They're still working on it.</p>
<p>-SALSBURY: Two - one to screw it in and one to buy an inflatable sheep so they can party all night long.</p>
<p>-WORCESTOR ACADEMY: None -Wooster looks better in the dark.</p>
<p>-MIDDLESEX: 216 - One to steal a bulb from someone else, fifteen to start rumors about who the thief was, and two hundred to have an unsupervised party off-campus.</p>
<p>-ST. GEORGE'S: One - but he tries to do it like the guys at Middlesex</p>
<p>-ST. MARK'S: Seven - one to screw it in and six to talk about how chill it is.</p>
<p>-ST. SEBASTIAN'S: Ten - a female teacher to change it,eight students to look up her skirt while she does it, and a priest so they can go confess their sin the next Sunday.</p>
<p>-WILLISTON: Seven - One to screw it in and six to figure out how to power it on manure.</p>
<p>-GUNNERY: None - Lava lamps don't burn out man!</p>
<p>Haha those are funny but don't really explain too much.</p>
<p>Oh my god, I love the lightbulb idea - was it your's?</p>
<p>nah,
I can't take credit for it (wish I could though.)</p>
<p>I don't get Lawrenceville's though. Does it mean they're not as smart as the other schools? Cause I always thought Lawrenceville was one of the smartest.</p>
<p>funny but not too acurate... Especially about Groton</p>
<p>Dazzlezzz, Where's the light bulb entry for Asheville? I'll offer one for St. Andrew's-Sewanee - none, a flashlight is much more useful</p>
