<p>My interviewers loved me. Especially the Yale one!
ok sorry, diehard classic lovers. Classics er very wonderful. it has this great 13th century ring to it that u cant find in er music types.
classic in my viewpoint is garbage. cry about it.</p>
<p>but beyond, the point of my rudeness and bringing my folks in:
"so does Yale offer anything else? (not related to music) like fun stuff youd go with your old high school friends with. so does Yale offer it, or Harvard, Yale, and Princeton for that matter???</p>
<p>Nope. No fun stuff at Yale like at your high school. When they’re not studying, Yale students just sit around and listen to garbage-y classical music. ;)</p>
<p>harvardlite, here’s my peace offering.<br>
You can check this site from time to time to see if there’s anything to your liking happening at Yale.</p>
<p>If you’re serious, I will give you one tip: if you go to Yale, or another school like it, and say that classical music is “garbage,” people will think you are stupid. It’s OK to say you like rap; lots of other people will like it too. But if you appear to be close-minded, you won’t fit in very well.</p>
<p>I don’t think Yale has a homecoming king, so fitting in there might be a little bit different than high school was. In fact, the classic-garbage-loving geeks are pretty big stuff on that particular campus–for example, a capella singing groups are cooler than rock bands or rap groups.</p>
<p>It’s still not too late to withdraw your HYP apps. They’re just flooded with these artsy geeks.</p>
<p>By the way, they can smell closed-minded snobs a mile away. If you happen to get admitted and supress your revulsion of being surrounded by artsy geeks for four years and actually matriculate, you better discover a way to mask your scent.</p>
<p>You realize that your “classical music is garbage” is equivalent to the same people who say “rap is garbage”, right?</p>
<p>^ its not equivalent-- half of america listens to rap/hip hop. those who wish to distinguish themselves as special ‘culutured’ material swallow classic to feel special. Garbage on garbage bro. </p>
<p>if yale is like your description, i hope for yale’s sake that they get in touch with America.</p>
<p>at the end of the day, Beethoven’s got nothing on 2Pak.</p>
<p>So how is Yale’s classroom life? i knw u get to sit and eat lunches with Nobels. But is homework overwhelming or is it just study for tests?</p>
<p>I call ■■■■■. On the off chance you’re for real, harvardlite, I suggest you withdraw your application to Yale. You’re not going to be happy there.</p>
<p>lmao @ harvardlite. seriously, this is the funniest thing i’ve read on this forum in a long time. you guys all got so worked up over it when he is obviously a ■■■■■. don’t give such an attention seeker the pleasure of your annoyance.</p>
<p>this thread has become quite a “Psychoanalysis of Harvardlite” thread. I am glad you guys spared me your love on Valentine’s Day.</p>
<p>Now, can someone answer this very uncontrovertial questions </p>
<ol>
<li><p>“So, what is the socioeconomic mix at Yale? Are working class kids comfortable socializing with more preppy students, and vice versa?” (this was unanswered in another thread) </p></li>
<li><p>and my question, “how are the on-campus jobs, do they pay well, what do they expect of you”</p></li>
</ol>
<p>1) in general: very good interaction. Some snobs were around but they could easily be avoided
2) on campus jobs min wage is about $11.50/hr. Fantastic wages. Some are more rigorous (dining halls) but pay better. Some are very simple (man a desk, answer phones, etc.)</p>
