<p>I think U of Chicago is an incredible university and place. However, with that said, it is a place for some ppl and not for others. I was fortunate enough to have been accepted to 2 of the top places in the midwest--Northwestern and U of Chicago. When I got accepted to these places, I visted both of them--they were entirely different. Both are great schools but excel in different areas. Chicago is inherently more intelectual and Northwestern is more pre-professional. Both are phenomenal and I definetely will be applying to graduate school (hopefully med school) at both places.</p>
