[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

Reality: no one says HPSM except trolls trying to boost lower Ivies. [/quote]

I didn’t go to any of these schools, but I’m sick of the Yale, Columbia and UChicago bashing. It’s so stupid. [/quote]

It should just be HS at this point anyway. They are great in every program across STEM, the humanities, and social sciences in a way the others just are not.
Yale still belongs with that 2nd group of YPM though. Remember that HYP is actually the OG group.[/quote]

For undergrad, I’d pick Yale and Princeton any day over Harvard regardless of major. Have heard from enough Harvard College alums how much they have hated it. Can’t speak about Stanford. [/quote]

I think just Princeton. Ever since I saw that video of a mob of Yale students attacking a professor for having the temerity to suggest students are responsible for their own Halloween costumes, I realized that Yale is basically Oberlin these days. Plus they don't have meaningful engineering or computer science programs. Yale really has no business sitting on top of the rankings. It's not 1955 anymore. They haven't kept up with undergrad STEM programs. And their students tend to be "social justice" warriors. I'd be disinclined to hire a recent Yale grad.[/quote]

If you think this social justice thing is just happening at Yale, you are completely delusional. It is happening at all Ivy campuses, and I say that as the parent of two recent Penn and Cornell grads.

ALSO, I didn’t realise this but Yale does have a very strong conservative scene  going on as well. I learned this from the kid of close friends who is a recent grad and was active with the Yale Political Union.

It just shows you that most people don’t know what the F they are talking about. They talk about schools they know nothing about as if they do. [/quote]

Hey she saw a video ok? A video. [/quote]
