Hey all,
So I am a senior in high school with little to no idea of what college campus I’d do best at. The only campuses I’ve been to are Harvard and Brown (did summer school there, and enjoyed them both). I figured I’d post some general info about myself, and see if you all have any recommendations for me. Thanks!
-My scores/grades/EC’s place me on the lower side of competitive for admission to HYP level schools (grades are the lowest portion of my application but still high enough to be overridden)
-I plan to major in physics and either political science or philosophy, with a good physics program being the most important
-For completness sake I feel the need to include that I’m a chubby Jewish white guy, but gender/race/religion really don’t matter at all to me
-I want a campus that would primarily be conducive to learning, with some level of nightlife as well
-I feel very comfortable with a solid friend group and I’m pretty outgoing, but I do sometimes have problems making friends nonetheless
-I absolutely want to be able to do research in physics as an undergrad
-I love debating
-I love general weirdness and any clubs that involve the proliferation thereof
-I want to be very challenged academically
-I suppose being by a big city would be nice, but not a must
-Same with student to faculty ratio - nice but not a must
Thank you all so much, let me know if you need any more info!
