<p>...for Princeton students:</p>
<p>Would you consider most Princeton students to be A+ brilliant?</p>
<p>When i visited universities before choosing Princeton, I noticed not EVERYONE was brilliant. Everyone was good, but not everyone was ridiculously smart. Oh, and of course there were the few geniuses (Olympiad winners, etc.)</p>
<p>The same goes for Princeton.</p>
<p>That's what really makes a lot of these chances posts amusing. Once you get here, you realize how normal a lot of the kids are. You don't have to be near perfect to get into Princeton.</p>
<p>^ Wait, you mean not everybody at Princeton has cured cancer!!?!</p>
<p>Yeah, I was in that frame of mind too before (and even after) getting in. I though that everyone was either a supergenius or somehow, significantly "different" from other college students. That is so not true. The people I've met so far demonstrate pretty much the exact same level of variety that you'd find at any school.</p>
<p>the OP must have been supremely interested in this question, since he posted the exact same thing in the forum of each ivy league school.</p>
<p>I wonder... since when is brilliance associated with A+? :( :( ahh...</p>
<p>yeah i am really interested in the question - i wanted to see how kids would react at different "elite" universities. everyone had a great answer and that is - "no - but most everyone is very smart." i think thats pretty cool.</p>
<p>^Agreed, I think it's neat that intelligence comes in so many forms.</p>
