<p>At least you sound like a chill person. My worst fear is getting into somewhere like Yale and everybody there is grade and career conscious people to the point where they don't want to party and have a little fun.</p>

<p>Dude you need to apply to Dartmouth. I have spent a weekend or more at every single Ivy (my HS friends went to alot of good schools) and by far Dartmouth has the most laid back fun students who are smart but cool. Funny people always ask "what's there to do in Hanover". Well with 10 parties going on every weekend night plus a ton of other campus stuff there is too much going on. Its Princeton without the pretention. Kids are amazing and people are interesting and intellectual, but a ton of fun. The kid next to you playing beer pong likely did thesis research in Cuba on Batista. Its that kind of place. Also Brown is great as well and people have a good time and its in a great location. Cornell has people who have a good time, but many who don't, and it just didn't feel very cohesive or community oriented. Yale also has a subset who have a good time, but its far from the overall campus.</p>

<p>Also as a match check out UNC-CH, not nearly as community oriented as the Ivies but overall a great place. So much going on even on the weekdays and Chapel Hill is beautiful.</p>

<p>Yeah, I've been to NC multiple times (Family in the area when i was younger). I probably will apply to Duke eventually. Dartmouth wasn't even on my mind, since I was told it's more math/science. Thanks man!!</p>

<p>oh and
BUMP</p>
