<p>Stanford: Harvard || Future: Past</p>

<p>@Cantconcentrate : I don’t think that is even possible…
I mean, uranium is not something you find at walmart, it’s illegal (and really expensive).
Plus, a nuclear reactor needs a lot of cooling… </p>
<p>And again, that would be so dangerous… Imagine that there’s a power failure : no more cooling (as I guess the home made nuclear reactor does not come with a home made fuel/gas reactor in case of shortage) , an uranium shell heating like hell… A small Tchernobyl.</p>
<p>But I’m sure it’s a myth MIT is really proud of ! (Btw, how could they possibly reject someone like that ? That would be stupid…)</p>
<p>Nope…^^ what Cantconcentrate says is true…But apparently it was built only for an MIT admission…so they got ****ed and rejected them…sad boy…I think he’s currently at stanford…:)</p>
<p>I still wanna know where he bought uranium !</p>
<p>re: the Forbes reference on previous page-Stanford has 4 times the number of undergrads so it is not surprising that they have more start ups.</p>
<p>JHS, I’d love you to include MIT (computer engineering) in that comparison! Great Insights.</p>
<p>Maybe a fusion reactor would be better</p>
<p>long gone are the days wherein if somebody has to choose bet H & S, it would automatically be H. there are tons and tons of reasons why…</p>
<p>If this counts…I never even applied to H only M and S:)</p>
<p>@Insidelane #25–that’s incorrect. Stanford and Harvard have very similarly-sized undergraduate populations. They are both approximately 7000 total. Where would you get the idea that Stanford has “4 times the number of undergrads”? LOL.</p>
<p>Stanford. Big Time Sports and way better weather. Since I think most of us would agree it’s basically impossible to determine which one gets the edge academically, and it’s a miniscule margin, I go to these other factors that make the difference.</p>
<p>I think the climate is a bigger factor now than it was even 5 years ago. The Northeast has had some really crappy winter weather and monster storms in the last few years! Global weather disturbances and all that…</p>
<p>You can’t beat Harvard’s reputation, but that reputation can be a social liability too and God forbid you make a mistake. People won’t EVER let you forget it.</p>
<p>Seven or eight years ago, I was talking to a guy who had gone to Harvard for his undergrad degree, and then the Stanford Business School. He offhandedly said Harvard was more competitive and students would stab each other in the back for better grades, while Stanford was more collaborative.</p>
<p>Stanford is interesting in that even education majors start software companies.</p>
