even though i would pick stanford 11 times of out 10 between the two, and that statisically it is tougher to get into, i wouldn't be surprised of H had the yield advantage over S for cross-admits.
revealed preference is sometimes quite different than what people say without choice.
It is very hard to turn down the "H".

How did this become a U of Chicago thread? As a Stanford grad, that is just not fair.

I'm also a U of C alum and people really do say (and it is kind of true) that it is where fun goes to die. I'm not the PP who bothered to post that though.
I did post that it's "the harvard of the midwest" which in my mind is a joke. Not that it isn't a great school, but it has no where near the brand recognition that Harvard has, which is a huge part of what going to Harvard is.

Harvard is the University of Chicago of the East, you mean.
And 'fun comes to die' poster, enough already.
NP, and no dog in this fight but my SIL went to University of Chicago and they really do say it's where fun goes to die.
I know they do (I'm an alum), but it seems like the same poster contributes 'fun comes to die' on every thread about Chicago. It gets old.

The OP posted the "updated" way of saying it (if you call updated what was said at my college 25 years ago). So it should be that Harvard is the U Chicago of the East.
