[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My impression is that Chicago is a true mix. there are a lot of quirky brainy kids and then the very large cohort of Econ kids who are mostly private school kids and many are very mainstream Bros (and gals).

My kids attended a feeder private and the Chicago kids are a mix of sporty kids who are somewhat quirky and a few bros. they all seem to be reasonably happy. however I've spent a lot of time on Reddit transfer board this year (my freshman who does not go to Chicago is transferring to a state school) and there were maybe 6 Chicago kids in ten mix who are trying to transfer due to the lack of a social scene there and a desire for a more vibrant social community. so it's hard to tell what is really going on.  probably depends on who your path crosses with and if your find your people.

unhappy students are attracted to dramatic rantings on reddit. happy students aren't on there, they're having a good time. everyone on reddit is so dramatic and want people to be as miserable as they are.[/quote]
