Harvard guy here.

I'm not going to claim to be effay at all with my basic as fuck prep fits so I will just skirt around that question but I'll try and approach the other ones.

I view students at the top LACs in the same exact light as I view students from any HYPSM school. They are very smart (or connected) and passionate about learning, they have the same exact diverse range of opportunity ahead of them as any student from HYPSM. Amherst, Williams, Bowdoin, Swarthmore, Pomona, etc all have extremely comparable programs to any Ivy League undergraduate expirience and will grant a student much more access to faculty and research opportunities. Like I said in my original post, the faculty hardly know who I am despite doing copious work for them in my two and a half years here. Sometimes LACs can be much more conservative with their financial aid and thus can make it difficult to be able to afford the giant price tag as opposed to the elite universities where they could make it free tuition for every student and pay for it off of the interest of their endowment.

I've heard from friends who ended up going to the LACs that places like Williamstown, Amherst (though they have UMass?), and Brunswick are socially dead and very difficult to find any sort of interesting sub culture. However, at that point you have to weigh what you are going to college for.

Class of 2019. Currently afraid the work load is going to eat me alive because I got in entirely on being a 7th gen legacy.
