<p>Also, how do you feel about the core? Columbia’s core is huge–bigger than U Chicago’s, I think–and doesn’t allow for too much flexibility. Stanford has a “core” of sorts, but there is a lot of choice in the different requirements. And then there are distribution requirements, which aren’t hard to fulfill. Plus, Columbia’s core includes a PE class. Do you really want to go back to PE? =p</p>
