Love and hate
by Tom who studied Pre-medical (Bachelor)
, written on March 24, 2015
Lots of prestige, just mentioning you go there gives you automatic respect. The campus is beautiful too.
I just didn't like many of the "politics" at Yale, however. It was very clear the favoritism students received who were "old money". Some students were CLEARY attending because of the donation daddy gave to the school or because he is friends with so and so.
I do love the overall encouragement of doing your own thing, its clear they expect greatness out of us.
It does still amaze me how its ranked higher than certain schools because I think the academics are not too rigorous, but I guess they have enough money and old prestige to keep on top.
Still 3 stars.
