I hope you have the opportunity to attend admit weekend for Stanford and the Yale equivalent. They are both great schools.

Since you are interested in “science/tech stuff” as a general idea and know that things may change a lot in the next four years (vs. a definitive “I am a CS or Physics person”), one thing to consider is the flexibility in the major. I don’t know anything about Yale’s programs, but what my DS liked about Stanford is the level of flexibility in majors/minors/cross-department, co-term program, etc.

As for the bubble, it is only as much of a bubble as you want.
