I LOVE my school...but it's a challenge. 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

Stanford made a tremendous difference in my life through exposure to bright and interesting classmates, and excellent faculty. 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.

I spent a lot of time considering which university I wanted to attend - right down to May 1. My decision ultimately came down to whether I wanted to spend a lot of money to go to Stanford, or attend a less perstigious university for less money. I do not regret my decision. Stanford works very hard to provide an open environment to its students. Most students are very entusiastic about what they are studying and where they are going in life, and everyone is obviously very talented at what the do. Although I feel like a little fish in a big pond here, I am convinced that, perhaps more than any other aspect of Stanford, my peers are encouraging me to grow.
