[quote=Anonymous]I have one DD at UChicago right now and a high school DD who did not apply to UChicago. I bring this up to consider another angle, and that is, city vs. country. I have two academically strong DDs. My UChicago DD would be miserable out in the sticks. She's also a bit status-oriented and likes that UChicago is known for being a hard school, and full of "quirky" brainy nerdy people. My current HS senior is outdoorsy and athletic and would not apply to any school in a city, because she wants easy access to wilderness and hiking. For Ivys she applied to Cornell and Dartmouth. My UChicago DD did also apply to Case. She was also going in as pre-med but she has since switched out. I have never said this to her, but I didn't think she was in that rat race for the right reasons and thought that she'd probably not continue. If you think your DD is really not going to wash out of pre-med, then I think Case is a great school for your DD.[/quote]
