I go to Stanford so I'm obviously super biased, but I think it was definitely the best choice for me. I got into all of the HYPS schools but I really dont know if I would have fit in well at HYP. Stanford has a super diverse group of students (in the broadest sense) and people generally don't think that they are better than the rest of the world because they go to a good school, which was not the impression I got at some other schools admit weekends... I have a few good friends from high school at Harvard specifically that aren't have a particularly good time there. But hey they get to say they went to Harvard which is definitely worth something so... Stanford doesn't have as many 100 generation legacies as HYP do which is nice.

What is funny is that I only know one person from my HS that left a top school and the school she left was Brown, lol.
