How does Veeky Forums feel about Ivy League Colleges?
Is it really just for spoiled rich brats?
How's studying in one of those as a complete introvert (if they even allow introverts into those places)?
I have the impression you're only allowed in if you're part of some kind of secret Illuminati style club, and that the people there are the epitome of being chads.
>how's studying in one of those as a complete introvert
probably impossible, given that you need to have good extracurriculars.
>i have the impression you're only allowed in if you're part of some kind of secret Illuminati style club
Sorta. Whether or not your parents went is a factor in most Ivy League admissions; that's basically because they don't have the balls to make it literally random to choose from the thousands of 4.0, top the people there are the epitome of being chads
A good chunk of them are really pretty fucking autistic

Basically they don't let you in unless you are a 6'3 white football playing astronaut from space and black transqueer handicapped muslim woman whos father is the president of skull and bones society. and really does it even matter? your local community college offers a better education and you wont be crippled for debt forever. seems like a plot by ((((((((((((((((them)))))))))))))) to me. check my reddit for more info

Having a good curriculum has nothing to do with being extra or introverted. A genuine introvert in the top 0.1% of students can easily learn several languages, be chess champion for his school several times over, have good programming experience, know how to play piano and have attended MUN Model Simulations (believe me it seems counter intuitive but introverts are really really good at those). >A good chunk of them are really pretty fucking autistic Autistic how? Autistic as in hurr durr retarded or autistic as in really shut in?

Cornellian here >inb4 fake ivy Hey we just scored above Penn, Yale, Brown, Dartmouth, and Columbia in the latest rankings go fuck yourself
>Is it really just for spoiled rich brats? No it's for some rich brats, a shit ton of asians, and a bunch of affirmative action
>How's studying in one of those as a complete introvert (if they even allow introverts into those places)? I study in my room, and it works.
>I have the impression you're only allowed in if you're part of some kind of secret Illuminati style club, and that the people there are the epitome of being chads. There are clubs within the schools that describe what you're talking about, but they're much less influential and important than they used to be. Now they're kind of memes.

Best colleges in the US, makes up the HYP of HYPSM. I think that kids should not obsess over getting into them because they are ivies, they are good but the successful kids out of them are primarily a function of the type of kids they aim to accept rather than the institutions themselves. Kids who strive for Ivies tend to do just as well regardless of where they go.
My personal favorite is Cornell
>Is it really just for spoiled rich brats?
No although legacy applicants have a radically easier time getting in.
>How's studying in one of those as a complete introvert (if they even allow introverts into those places)?
You are fine at any of them except for Dartmouth. They let introverts in all the time. Its not as if its some extroverted heaven.
>I have the impression you're only allowed in if you're part of some kind of secret Illuminati style club, and that the people there are the epitome of being chads.
No they aren't all chad, except possibly Dartmouth where there is intense social pressure to be chad.
