<p>which is what im actually kind of scared of…being surrounded by a really smart and geeky student body…don’t get me wrong, i am willing to work hard. but if say i work for the same amount of time at both school, i will get a lower grade at uchicago (both number wise, since columbia has grade inflation, and relative to my peers, since students at uchicago are more hardworking). is my concern a valid one?</p>
