Has anyone graduated from Harvard undergrad, Yale, or the like? Or is anyone attending these schools now?

I graduated from harvard last year so I can answer this question.\nThere's really no one formula for getting into Harvard.\nSo many talented and qualified people apply, and they simply can't choose everyone, so I think in the end a lot of the admissions decisions are luck of the draw.\nOne thing I think sets Harvard (and some other private schools apart) from state schools is that Harvard really does care about more than just your scores and grades, as unbelieveable as that may sound.\nThe truth is that nearly everyone at Harvard had straight As in high school, lots of AP classes, and very high SAT scores (1500-1600). \nSo Harvard looks beyond those numbers and tries to select "Interesting" people. They want a real cross section of society. They want people who come from different backgrounds (not just ethnic, but religious, nationality, and even geographic diversity within the United States). They look for people with different talents and skills.\n\nSo if you are a tuba-playing student with a 1500 SAT and you live in Idaho, you probably have a better chance of getting in than if you are a basketball playing student from New York with a 1600 SAT score, simply because the Idaho student is more unique.\n\nBut as I said before, there's no formula.

Yes, absolutely. I know many students who've got a bachlors degree in one subject and a master's in something else. I'm going to do the same. Best of luck to you. =>

Harvard Buisness school is the best. Look into Yale and Oxford.

Here's the latest rating list.  Harvard, Stanford, and Wharton (Penn) usually top the list.  But there are many good schools.  Very few can get into Harvard.  (They even turned ME down!) \n\nBest of luck to you.

I'd have to say A&M, although I'm biased because I went there. I wasn't an architecture major, but I'm interested in it and I enjoyed taking an architecture class and independent study project there. I had a friend who did arcitecture there who is in grad school at Yale now, so they seem to prepare people well. I don't know much about the other school, although Chicago does have some historic influence in architecture.

They are all very prestigious and fairly good at what they do.  All are fairly well respected.\n\nMIT:  THE top of the hard mathlike sciences and most Eng (eg, Comp Sci, EE, ChemE, etc).  Has fairly good liberal arts in particular philosophy and linguistics with big names.  However, MIT has never been exclusive and has no athletic scholarships, legacies, etc and suffers in overall prestige because of that.\n\nHarvard:  THE top "old boy's school".  Historically has been very exclusive with mainly legacies, donors etc adding to the prestige mystique.  REALLY good for medicine, law, etc and strong in everthing else.  If you're going for science, though, go to MIT since most students cross register and take a few courses there anyway!  It  just down the road.\n\nPrinceton > Stanford in terms of prestige.  I can't think of anyting in particular where they top the other two, but they are fairly strong and ranked up there .\n\nIf you're looking for a general undergrad experience I would go for Stanford.  It may be the least prestigous but in terms of education, it offers the best depth and breadth so you're sure to get a solid foundation regardless of what you want.  \n\nIn order I would pick Stanford > Harvard > Princeton for college/undergrad.  MIT is not included because it may not offer the best breadth, but if you're into hard science and technology, none of them can really compete.  (If you had mentioned Caltech, that might have been a different story :P).
