First off, are you '10? This is the time of year when it starts running together!

It’s gloooooorious! Personally, I always came away from those presentations with a lower opinion of the school. I didn’t attend a UChicago presentation until I was in the “infatuated” stage and couldn’t find fault with anything about it. I know I went to a Northwestern one where the lady smiled way too much and still hasn’t emailed me back, almost a year later. I think those programs are kind of technicalities these days. The internet and youtube and things have made them almost useless. I never learned anything about a school at an info session that I didn’t know from the website. But I’d definitely say that if you’re looking for the “vibe” without visiting, check out the admissions web site, read the uncommon blog, talk to current students on Facebook and on this board, and keep your mind open. If you’re a junior, good luck with applications and such. If you’re not, I dunno why you posted this, haha. Application tip: spell check is a man’s best friend, I definitely feel your pain!
