Thank you so much to everyone who gave advice.
I finally decided today: next year, I will be going to Pomona! Many of you were right; though it took me about a month to realize it, I really did subconsciously prefer Pomona. I know Princeton is an excellent school with fantastic opportunities, but I think I’ve discovered that I am not quite what the school is looking for. Furthermore, in my mind the positive attributes of Pomona (small, discussion-based classes and the laid-back community) outweigh the attributes of Princeton (renowned professors, resources, and alumni connections).
This is definitely the right decision for me, and thank you for helping me choose.
