Oh, exactly. I completely agree. Sometimes I take it a step further and say that as students at a school with so much freedom, it’s quite possible that we have the chance to challenge ourselves even more than kids at similar schools with more stringent guidelines. (Prerequisites for courses? More like… pre-guidelines! <em>jumps into a grad-level math class w/o having taken Linear</em>)</p>
<p>I do tend to ■■■■■ that “Brown is a fake school” because I think that it is treated as such by many students (whom, you’re right, adcoms should seek to detect), not to mention seen that way by some outsiders… but really, I makes fun of it 'cause I loves it. :]</p>

Some do, some don’t. That’s really the most I can say without getting into other kids’ heads and without being more hastily judgmental than I care to be.</p>
