[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At harvard, we had really pompous tour guides which was a shame because it just fed into concerns that are the biggest turn off about the place. The location and reputation are so outstanding.[/quote] I don't know if I'd use the word "pompous" but I agree with the general sentiment. I think it's in their culture to self-promote. In April and beyond, their parent FB had many posts "introducing" their kids and their wonderful achievements. Nothing wrong with that, there's much to be proud of, but I did not see this to the same extent in other FB groups of peer institutions. Harvard is still Harvard. If accepted, it is hard to turn down. There are probably only 2 other schools in the world that a cross-admit might otherwise choose to go to.[/quote]
