This is a little surprising. Did they not get scholarship money from Stanford or Berkeley?

Please explain how your kid got into all 3 of these!


DC is very smart and worked hard.

No. My son applied EA. Are you an alumni that had a bad experience there? How come you feel so strongly about people who choose the school?
What's your own personal experience with UChicago?


Have you been on this site long? There is an almost pathological hate for Chicago. In general it's a pretty controversial school due to their intense marketing (people claim they are flooded with mailings), and their numerous ED options (ED0 is really over the top IMO).
