[hidden bloom]

-Stanford ‘28

[hidden bloom]

Go to Princeton

You won’t miss anything

[barren tusk]

Harvard’s math is as good as Princeton’s. Lots of advanced classes, math 25/55, ppl take grad classes, independent studies, research, PhD placement is great, I don’t think you’ll be missing anything at all

[rare kiln]

thank you sm.

[solemn quest]

go to harvard the undergrad research is more flexible i think

[jolly lichen]

harvard better for neuro and princeton better for math.
this is such a marginal difference if any. I can only really speak about math but I don't think anyone in the field seriously thinks harvard is worse than princeton by any metric

if you think ill miss out on anything if i go to harvard and end up pursuing math
absolutely not.

[sacred orchid]

@jolly lichen you did astrophysics at harvard right?

i forgot if it was undergrad or grad or both

[jolly lichen]

I studied physics + cs (sm) but most of my research was in astro

[sacred orchid]

ooh ok

if i ever had questions about physics at harvard could i ask you them in dms? not sure how much you know about harvard astrophysics in specific (i.e. course stuff)

[jolly lichen]

yah I can answer pretty much anything wrt astro or physics

feel free to dm!

[sacred orchid]

YAYAYAY

thank you <3

[tribal copper]

go to visit days then decide

but u won't miss anything choosing harvard over princeton

[subtle ridge]

im in the same predicament rn but politics/gov on pre-law track

hoping visiting gives me my answer fingers crossed

[rare kiln]

thank youuu

[tribal copper]

🙏

choose wherever feels the most like home imho

[subtle ridge]

ive been lowkey winging it thus far and ended up here so might just do that again LMAO

[robust flume]

So I made a website that teaches kids in 3rd world coutnries mechanical engineering and it is a non profit with over 70 members of my school engaging in it. How much do you think Harvard would take this into consideration? I have photos of hundreds of kids from angola, Zambia, Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and other countries.

[minor pecan]

[errant phoenix]

only for some people

[subtle ridge]

mk mk thank you

[rancid mural]

Not on my watch

not on myyyyyy watch ⏱️

[frosty hamlet]

i got an email

and a few people ik did

but it was all the same template

they just changed a few words / phrases

[near obsidian]

ILL BE IN HOUSTON

just qualified for internationals 🤣

[late zenith]

bro said he had no cracked ecs and got hosa intls

[near obsidian]

i swear this is the first time ever

😭

[rotund ember]

OMG XINNN WHEN

[subtle ridge]

yeah it’s probably like upenn’s email

thanks!

[fossil willow]

i went to intls last year and i qualified this year but i see no point in going 💀

cus i was only 3rd in the state both times

so aint no way i would get top 10 intl

my state also just isnt hard tho i cant imagine california or new york hosa

[tall forge]

Is there any kind of Visitas gc or admitted students gc?

[fossil willow]

there is two harvard discord servers and like 5 ig gc's with dif purposes

i am in both discords and the general + black ig's

if u need inv to any of those

[tall forge]

Just pmed you!

[near obsidian]

just goooo

it’ll be fun

we can meet up

i got 1st for my event

[near obsidian]

I THINK JUNE 26….?

[rotund ember]

OMG MEET UP ??

[fossil willow]

nah i alrdy declined it. my teacher was so mad 😭

its just a lot of money for not much payoff

i could make $400 working that week instead of spending $1,000 to go

last year ppl donated for me to go which was so cool, literally alexander Hamilton 🔥

[tribal copper]

no now i'm unsure

[tribal copper]

yea mike won't let me

idk ik reddit isn't a good place to base my opinions but i made a post and a ton of harvard people have just been flaming me not giving off a great vibe

yes i'm still leaning towards harvard but now i feel like if i ended up choosing yale/pton over harvard i wouldn't regret it as i was thinking of before

[errant phoenix]

why would u regret it tho

imo the vibe Harvard gives isn’t a great one

just my opinion

some people love it

I say go to Yale or Princeton

[tribal copper]

before i was thinking i'd regret passing up on harvard mainly just bc of the prestige

and cambridge is a great area

but the more i start to consider stuff

[errant phoenix]

yale and Princeton prestige is equivalent

[tribal copper]

the more i'm on the fence about it

[errant phoenix]

All of HYPSM prestige is the same lol

[tribal copper]

very true but harvard name is the most "common place"

im first gen so

outside of harvard my parents dont know shit

[errant phoenix]

I see

[tribal copper]

when i told them yale

they were like where's that??

what's that

[errant phoenix]

Do they know stanford 😭

[tribal copper]

same w princeton

[tribal copper]

LMFAOO NOT AT ALL

they know

harvard

[errant phoenix]

LOL

[tribal copper]

wait since we're in state

umass boston and umass amherst

[errant phoenix]

wait that makes sense

[tribal copper]

BU BC

MIT

[errant phoenix]

Harvard is in ur state

[tribal copper]

yes

[errant phoenix]

duh

[tribal copper]

yes yes

johns hopkins and cornell

that'

that

that's all

omg i cant type

[errant phoenix]

but u can’t go wrong with yale

[tribal copper]

true

[errant phoenix]

Or Princeton

[tribal copper]

im trying to negotiate aid at yale rn

currently writing an email

[errant phoenix]

they will match

[tribal copper]

yale wants me to pay around 5k/yr more

[tribal copper]

i think they will most likely

but i'm def gonna check out visitas/bulldog day vibes

before i think i was caught up in the prestige

but some interactions i've had idk i'm on the fence

on the fence for all hyp

tbh

[errant phoenix]

what would u go to over hyp

[tribal copper]

nothing

[errant phoenix]

Oh

lol

[tribal copper]

excuse my improper grammer i gotta get more sleep

😭

[errant phoenix]

ofc

[tribal copper]

yea but i think i have to start a journal

[errant phoenix]

I could see u at yale

[tribal copper]

to just document my thoughts between hyp

[errant phoenix]

Harvard is too stuffy for you

[tribal copper]

i def saw myself at yale for a good time too

even w the harvard likely something in the back of my head was like why not yale

but at the same time

my interactions (strictly online so idk the validity) w yale kids has been uhhh

a lot of them seem "fake" in a sense

[errant phoenix]

that’s like every school

[tribal copper]

while my interactions (strictly online too) have seemed more genuine

i can't generalize anything

and then w harvard

ik this isn't a good measure

but dawg people on my reddit post were so harsh 😭

i was genuinely interested in learning more about the school and everyone responding sounded like they had a stick up their ass

[errant phoenix]

yeah nah fuck that

that’s unnecessary

[tribal copper]

someone checked my post history and said something like "maybe this is the reason why you had trouble making friends in hs"

like damn dawg

ik it's reddit but still

i'm just def reconsidering everything

but at the same time others have been great to me

like abstract

and other harvard admits here

i guess i won't truly know until i step on campus

i'm going to princeton tmrw

and then harvard/yale next week

and then ALSO speaking of vibes 😭 idk why even tho ppl say princeton is cutthroat and competitive i haven't gotten that at all

the admitted students are actually rlly helpful and keep it real

so in terms of bad/mixed experiences (again strictly online)

i'd say harvard has been the most mixed, yale fairly okay, and princeton pretty good

[errant phoenix]

GO TO PRINCETON

[tribal copper]

but for premed idkk

[frosty hamlet]

it is

trust trust

😎

actually

i know a bunch of people who go to princeton -- my school sends a lot

and some love it, but some really don't

[tribal copper]

true but granted this can apply everywhere

[frosty hamlet]

but it's the same with yale and harvad

yes

[tribal copper]

idk im taking everything w a grain of salt

[frosty hamlet]

sure

[tribal copper]

i really wont know until princeton preview, bdd, and visitas

[frosty hamlet]

you'll know when you step on campus

absolutley

[tribal copper]

in terms of aid i think its princeton>harvard>yale

in terms of vibes i think its harvard/yale>princeton

[frosty hamlet]

you really can't make a wrong choice here

[tribal copper]

harvard/yale bc mixed experiences kinda w both

in terms of academics

hmmm

harvard/princeton>yale

[frosty hamlet]

h>p>y for premed?

[tribal copper]

h>y>p for premed i'd say

princeton grade deflation hurts

some student sent me something saying 60% of premeds take a gap year

[frosty hamlet]

jhu for premed is arguably better than both yale and princeton

[tribal copper]

also princeton has a smaller percentage of matriculating premed

[frosty hamlet]

harvard is the best for premed though

[tribal copper]

hmmm

valid

jhu is premed haven

but jhu isn't for me

i knew when i stepped on campus

[frosty hamlet]

no i understand

[tribal copper]

just the vibes and stuff were off and i couldn't see myself thriving there for 4 years

i cant explain why

honestly

jhu is a great school

but i just couldn't see myself there

i hope that i get some sort of deciding factor during pton preview, visitas and bdd

[frosty hamlet]

have you visited harvard?

or yale?

wait

you went to both

yes i remember

how were the vibes at h and y respectively?

[tribal copper]

i visited harvard but i don't think it's a fair evaluation

bad weather

couldn't explore inside of campus

no students on campus

but harvard square was amazing

lot of things to do

I actually love taking the subway so

but the workers i did interact with were actually pretty nice

sometimes i wish i'd only gotten into one of these schools which would make the decision easier 😭 im very grateful but i reconsider almost daily

i am still leaning towards harvard but now i'm starting to reconsider

[errant phoenix]

WAIT GO TO DUKE

[tribal copper]

duke gave me eh money

duke wants me to pay 15k/yr

cornell wants 25?k/yr

harvard wants 6k/yr

yale wants 10k/yr

[pallid rivet]

Yo wtf 😭

[tribal copper]

yeah bruh

idk maybe i worded the question wrong but i was genuinely excited and interested

[errant phoenix]

That seems a little aggressive

[pallid rivet]

They’re probably shocked that you’re considering other schools over Harvard

And you aren’t mesmerized by the prestige factor alone

[tribal copper]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Harvard/comments/1byil74/tell_me_everything_you_know_about_harvard_good/

idk bruh

some people did give me genuine advice tho

[errant phoenix]

Wait ur post isn’t even bad

Those reactions are uncalled for

[tribal copper]

yeah i didn't think it was that bad 😭

i even said i was leaning towards harvard

idk bro everyone sounds like they have a stick up their ass

and they're so aggressive

yes it's reddit so

taking everything w a grain of salt

but it just started giving me mixed feelings

[errant phoenix]

Yeah ikkk

I get that

[pallid rivet]

Dw irs j a minority of the student population

Visitas will be a better exposure

[tribal copper]

i pray so

[pallid rivet]

Trust

[tall moat]

yes! overted will be exposed to me

[tribal copper]

true harry will be my highlight

<3

[errant phoenix]

smh

[pallid rivet]

Don’t exposure yourself smh

[rain frost]

the comments on this post are so soy

[errant phoenix]

i love how he j name dropped him

[pallid rivet]

😭

[covert stratus]

grade inflation is a huge factor, along with cost, everything else is kinda secondary tbh

at least at the h/y/p level you're not gonna be struggling with anything else

[covert stratus]

huh i really didn't like it

[covert stratus]

tbf harvard subreddit gets brigaded like crazy with stupid requests and insane posting

[woeful grove]

it’s so bad

[late zenith]

3.2 avg gpa

[rain frost]

yea

seems accurate

[tribal copper]

soy? 😭

[tribal copper]

true

[rain frost]

like pretentious or obnoxious

[tribal copper]

oh yea i agree

[rain frost]

sorry i keep using chronically online internet language

[tribal copper]

😭

[tribal copper]

trying to negotiate rn and go from there

[near obsidian]

IF UR IN HOUSTON…

[rotund ember]

[covert stratus]

[frigid herald]

[tribal copper]

💀

idk bruh

im like legit 50-50

[frigid herald]

no you are not

[tribal copper]

yes i am

[frigid herald]

why would you go to yale for pre-med

its like shooting urself in the foot

[tribal copper]

like focusing away from academics and prestige

i'm trying to compare fit

and vibes

[tribal copper]

BRO???

yale premed is like best in the us

oops

[frigid herald]

no

[tribal copper]

i mean one of the best

[frigid herald]

harvard is lol

[tribal copper]

ik harvard is

[frigid herald]

yale is t10 for premed

maybe

[frigid herald]

#15 lol

ur gonna go to harvard and be with your FRIENDS

[tribal copper]

i can go to yale and be with my friends

[frigid herald]

no

you cannot

we're all going to hahvard

[tribal copper]

bruh im just on the fence

idk

[frigid herald]

but why

[tribal copper]

^

[frigid herald]

oh

well you're not going to have better vibes at yale than harvard

[errant phoenix]

welllll

[frigid herald]

???

wdym wellll kirk

[errant phoenix]

idk i feel like yale is more collaborative

which might be helpful for a premed

[frigid herald]

kirk backstabbing arc rn

[vital wharf]

facts yale is just the best for everything

[errant phoenix]

nahhhh

[tribal copper]

i honestly don't know to be fair

[tribal copper]

possibly? but harvard isn't as ultra competitive as i thought

atp im more worried about elitism + finding genuine friends

and pretentiousness

[undone stone]

commit to cornell to prove everyone wrong

[tribal copper]

rather than competition

[tribal copper]

yea i rather die

tbf

i'm only saying that because cornell wants me to pay 29k/yr

i'd die in student loans

[undone stone]

😔

[tribal copper]

my family can't afford that shit

thats 25% of our income wtf

pretax too

[frigid herald]

wait nvm

cornell is like 3k/yr for me i think

in billed expenses

[pallid rivet]

🤨

[tribal copper]

that's not bad

[covert stratus]

???

[tribal copper]

hydro i need help bruh

what do i doooo

[covert stratus]

visit both unis and figure it out

i dont think you can go wrong

[tribal copper]

like will i know as soon as i step on campus

im worried i'll make the wrong choice

[covert stratus]

you'll know a while after

i think

[tribal copper]

[sacred orchid]

i gotta save yo ass here too huh

[tribal copper]

jazzy chill

[sacred orchid]

im so chill

ur onto 4 cakes rn

[tribal copper]

4 cakes??

[sacred orchid]

mhm we're baking you cakes to convince you to commit to harvard

[frigid herald]

im going to pretend to be chris and tell yale he hates bulldogs

[sacred orchid]

im going to pretend to be chris and pee on campus

[tall moat]

they certainly collaborate!

[errant phoenix]

HELP

LMFAO

[sacred orchid]

i personally consider myself a great collaborator

therefore you can't help but attend the same institution that i am

[pallid rivet]

You could say

They share an identity

[frigid herald]

LOL

[vague hemlock]

out of curiosity what difference do you think visiting makes

because i visited like 3 campuses last year and fell in love with all of them

because i mean every campus is beautiful and obv your tour guides will hype up their respective schools

[vague hemlock]

lol real

[vague hemlock]

What was your question

[vague hemlock]

ok yeah i see what you mean

[vague hemlock]

i used that language to my irl friends and they were so concerned💀💀💀

[rain frost]

😭😭😭

your friends’ heads will explode if you say shlawgington or shlimesicle

[vague hemlock]

i said mog maxxing and they were like ???? smrithi who are you

[rain frost]

nahg u jus mogmaxx them

[tribal copper]

i think hearing about it and experiencing it are 2 different things

i feel like when i actually visit and experience somewhat what it’d be like to be on campus as a student i’ll get a better understanding of whether i’d like to go there or not

[hidden bloom]

@fossil willow Coby says going to preview is hella convincing him to commit. Visita better watch it’s back

[fossil willow]

lies

[hidden bloom]

@undone briar

[hidden bloom]

I told you my plan was set in motion yesterday 😈

[fossil willow]

bro prolly said that to keep u on ur toes like the mastermind he is

[hidden bloom]

Nope

[fossil willow]

coby started typing then said im not dealing with these lunatics 💀

[hidden bloom]

He doesn’t want to disappoint you

[hidden bloom]

@undone briar tell him what u told me

And how you are now hella considering Princeton

[fossil willow]

literal ⛽️💡

[hidden bloom]

Tf does this mean

[undone briar]

i said that the preview definitely opened my eyes to some of the things princeton offers

[hidden bloom]

And…

[fossil willow]

see coby, princeton people cant read

[undone briar]

but i also did say harvard was still ahead by some

[hidden bloom]

Go on…

[fossil willow]

dont go to pton

[hidden bloom]

You said like 53/47

[undone briar]

but i said princeton made a come up

[hidden bloom]

💀

[undone briar]

[hidden bloom]

Bros just capping now

[undone briar]

[hidden bloom]

Save face for kace

[fossil willow]

[hidden bloom]

[undone briar]

[fossil willow]

[undone briar]

in the moment

[fossil willow]

apple pay doesnt work for me in alabama or georgia, only rochester airport 💀

which makes fuck all sense

maybe it will work in boston

i tried it in other parts of rochester and it didnt work

[rotund stone]

Hey guys, I just got my finaid back from Harvard, and my EFC is like 5x the amount for other schools. Is there a reason for this? Like do they consider stuff that other schools don’t?

[tall moat]

def email them

[rotund stone]

Should I just be like hey this is drastically different from the amount I usually get??

[tall moat]

I think there r templates online that you can use!

[hidden bloom]

EFC/SAI shouldn’t change since it’s from your fafsa lol. Financial aid might change depending from each school tho, just send them a message

[rotund stone]

Okay I will thanks!! Does anyone know if Harvard matches other ivies? Specifically Columbia and UPenn cause they both gave me SIGNIFICANTLY better aid

[frigid herald]

yes

100%

10000000%

They matched my Yale aid

[tribal copper]

lies

he’s not going to princeton

[tribal copper]

preview was hot ass don’t lie

i should’ve stayed home dawg

[rotund stone]

Ugh thank you so much I’m freaking out rn

[tribal copper]

ong

[undone briar]

i really enjoyed it

the students carried it

[tribal copper]

okay

we r not the same

i’m happy u had fun tho

[fossil willow]

he meant harvard efc

what his fam is supposed to pay

[hidden bloom]

Why they have their own efc

[fossil willow]

does princeton not expect anyones family to contribute 💀

this

[hidden bloom]

That’s not EFC

That’s just financial aid

[fossil willow]

what do u think efc stands for 😭

efc got retired so colleges could use the term without there being confusion

[hidden bloom]

Efc is for fafsa

[fossil willow]

so now sai is federal

[hidden bloom]

Oh ig

[tribal copper]

luck when he’s wrong😭😭

take the L with grace bro
