<p>chill out people. ivies are great schools im just joking around to get some intelligent people to check out my thread ha. im just saying ivies are not the only good schools and prestige hunting is generally not the best way to choose a school. this is agreed upon by ANYONE knowledgable about colleges and anyone on CC who is worth listening to. i am even looking to go to schools of ivy caliber and even an ivy im just trying to say that the program is more important than the prestige of the school. </p>
<p>and you ms./mr. kei are making some outlandish assumptions. i am certainly not trashing any schools nor am i claiming not to have been accepted for any specific reason. and my school actually does not have a neuroscience program. i am also looking for a more intellectual environment and research opportunities. i also really like open curriculums so brown is in consideration as is amherst seeing as how both of those have strong neuro programs. any other thoughts and safety suggestions? </p>
<p>PS Ivies are awesome, sorry for offending. if i had only put “applying to yale” in my title maybe id get more responses…</p>
