Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Communications  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright I graduated with two degrees at the age of 20. I should have "stopped to smell the roses" more often and worked harder at developing social networks. College was all work, no play. I hold my teenagers to high educational standards, but I don't want them to make the same mistakes. Life is short and should be enjoyed.

I'm challenged every single day, and while it is easy to slip and let work just slide, it really hurts you. The quarter system goes fast and while it has its advantages, it doesn't leave much time for catching up. You have to stay on top of your work and you have to be independent. The school, people, environment, and everything associated with it are amazing. When I get the time, I look around and I note just how great my experiences here are and just how vast the opportunities are for students. Everyone is brilliant in their own way here and it creates an atmosphere that is unparalleled. I know that my education is preparing me for life, and though I do find myself struggling, I know I will look back on my days here with nothing but gratitude and positive reminiscence. There really is no other place like it. I feel absolutely privileged to be able to go to school here. Education Quality: A+, Social Life: B Have a Question?

If you're more the Humanities kind of kid who needs to be directionless for a little while, go to a small northeastern liberal arts college. At Stanford, you'll feel like a needle in a haystack. The campus social scene is pretty dull, and Palo Alto, unfortunately, is good for nothing more than a cup of coffee and a trip to Borders. However, the student-body mix really is phenomenal- make the effort and you will meet some extraordinary people. Faculty Accessibility: A, Surrounding City: D Have a Question?

Most of us acquired a personal identity as "Stanford students" in which we took pride and which we were loath to surrender at graduation. Not everything was perfect and not everyone was highly intelligent or nice, but the place was about as much of a Mecca as it could be given it was full of ambitious teenagers.
