[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Probably not highly ranked enough for you but William and Mary has a lot of similarities to Rice. Caltech too if your kid is STEM focused.[/quote] DC's super nerdy personality may be a fit at Caltech (and she has the stats for it) but assume it's out of reach for someone without national-level competition ECs and it's another where-fun-goes-to-die school, no?[/quote] Don’t necessarily need national level competition, especially if female. And it’s definitely not a where-fun-goes-to-die school. They have a house system which creates great community and some of the houses are very much into partying. The houses also do these huge themed parties once or twice a year for the whole campus that are impressive - themes and set construction… The classes and research are very rigorous but the kids there are brilliant enough to handle them and having fun. But your kid must be certain she wants STEM. [/quote]
