<p>-Obviously the name WashU will not carry as much weight as Harvard. Personally, I like that if I tell someone where I’m going, most likely people who I would want to know the prestige of the school (intelligent people) will know it and people who don’t know a lot about colleges won’t. A few years from now though, IMO, it will be MUCH more well known.</p>
<p>-Work hard/play hard. Part of why I love it.</p>
<p>-It’s known as VERY laid-back and not competitive. Except maybe premeds.</p>
<p>-Most people will agree that anything involving medicine is the highlight of the university.</p>
