Hello everyone! I fortunately have been admitted to both Harvard and Stanford for undergrad, but I'm having an incredibly difficult time making a final decision. I will be visiting both schools very shortly, but in the meantime, I wanted to gauge your opinions on these two schools.
Now I want to do physics, but for practical/financial reasons, I feel that engineering might be a better decision (and I'm really interested in Aerospace). But physics is still something I'm considering since I really do want to get a Ph.D in it. I seriously love it and have never wanted to study anything else, but the perks of engineering just seem really attractive right now. I've also heard horrible things about the miserable work environments in physics.
I know it's obvious that Stanford is miles ahead of Harvard for engineering, but which would you guys recommend for physics? Gotta admit though, this is a fantastic dilemma to have :) Thanks guys!
