[quote=Anonymous]You have to be a particular type of student to thrive at Stanford. It's not like a state school where there is a diverse and large student body to have a niche for everyone. If you're not socially savvy, ambitious (to the point of seeking to be the best, and nothing less than that), self-driven, focused, and interested in coupling entrepreneurship and technology towards your academic and extracurricular pursuits, you will not like Stanford. Too many students have Stanford as their dream school, drawn to the allure of some laid-back counter to the Ivies away when in some ways it's more stressful. If you are that forementioned student, Stanford will give you access to an unparalleled level of opportunities and connections no other place on earth could match. If you're not that student, be honest with yourself about if you can handle that pervasive atmosphere. [/quote]
