where did everyone commit to while waiting to hear back from Harvard?

See title. I bet everyone has some great schools to attend even if they don't hear back from Harvard. Best of luck to all

Duke, although realistically, I'd turn it down without even thinking if I got the call from H.

UPenn, but will turn 'em about for H. Mostly b/c of fin aid. H improved their aid so much say that even 120-180k incomes contribute about 10% toward college. So its around 15-20k for H, vs. 35k for Penn.

I wanted to go to UChicago (still think it's better than Berkeley), but couldn't justify the price differential.
