[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, Yale sounds like a truly horrific place to me. Please don’t let your kids apply! The acceptance rate is too low already  :lol: [/quote]

+1  :D

I wish nonsense like this would turn people away. Yale is my kid’s dream school! [/quote]

To be honest, crime concerns and lack of STEM strength [i]have[/i] turned people and away and pushed Yale to the bottom of HYPSM, and I’ve seen more than a few posters just using HPSM to refer to the best schools (HPSM are equally strong in humanities and STEM and have “the best of both worlds”).[/quote]

Yeah…MIT is really known for its humanities.[/quote]

MIT's English and creative writing departments are really good. And, unlike Yale, Sloan's Business school is genuinely good.

Yale has been coasting for years. Extremely overrated school for undergrads.[/quote]

Ok…what about the 100+ other humanities areas?  Let’s be honest…MIT is not comparable to Yale (or really any top 10 schools) for depth and breadth of humanities.

I assume you know business is not a humanities area.[/quote]

Eh. MIT gets the smarter kids, And so too does Caltech, Princeton, Rice, Stanford, and several other schools.

I'm sure Yale has outstanding graduate students in the humanities.

But times change.

Schools like MIT are rolling with it. Yale is an anachronism. It has no business being considered as a a top school for undergrads[/quote]
