[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who doesn’t know about Williams and their superlative undergraduate program doesn’t deserve to have an opinion on this. The Ivies have tried to emulate the LAC model directly from Amherst and Williams. None of them offer winter study and individualized tutorials. Williams is arguably a stronger education than at least HYS (Princeton is the only comparable Ivy academically)[/quote]
What a bunch of BS. Williams has tried its hardest to replicate the things it sees the ivies excel at. HYPSM all have better undergraduate education than Williams with 20-100x the amount of course selection and depth of content. Williams is great for the mediocre upper middle class kid that went to boarding school and needs 1-on-1 attention to climb, but any competitive student will have so many more resources at an ivy, especially these days.[/quote]

You have no experience with Williams.

Almost anyone who has attended Williams and then HYPSM after- a notable contingency, given that HYP tend to be the top graduate school destinations- will tell you how substantial the difference in teaching excellence, mentorship, and feedback on assignments and projects is available to the average undergrad at Williams compared to that at the university.[b] They will also highlight the clear residential focus of Williams and the deep camaraderie in the community that is not readily found at most Ivies.[/b]

Someone who has obviously never attended an ivy institution. [/quote]

Yale, Brown, and Dartmouth are the only comparable ones. Cornell, Columbia, and UPenn especially are far from it. [/quote]
