I chose Harvard over ...

Now that decisions are in, I would be curious to learn of the other schools in the decision set of those who have elected to attend Harvard.

Conversely, if you did not chose Harvard, where are you going in the fall?

Wow, and I thought I was abnormal by applying to so many schools.

Yale, Columbia, Cornell, MIT, Stanford, BU (honors? I stopped paying attention after I got into MIT, and obviously after Harvard), NYU Honors, University of Wyoming (attractive for its full ride)

Well, everyone's got their own decisions to make. Sounds like the kid has a reasonable head on his shoulders.
