The point of this thread is not that Ivy League schools are bad. Rather, it is that that if you choose to attend one, do so because you like the school and not because of the prestige. I think the post is basically a criticism of people who ask, “What are my chances at HYPSM?”. These five schools are so different that it is almost impossible for someone to be a good fit for all five. Whoever said that prestige matters, you are correct. But when making a college choice, consider other factors in addition to that.
