My dream school is, coincidentally, Caltech.
I would like to attend Caltech due to the almost unbeatable research opportunities that it offers as an undergrad, almost giving it's undergrads a sort of grad-like experience. As well as it's community from what I have seen, which seems focused on a love for STEM related fields/subjects thus making it a great place to be open with my own love for math and theoretical computer science.
I would like a Caltech t-shirt if possible.
Trey same bro what’s your age?
Why not MIT
NR Rocks because in mit there are a lot of students ...
The student faculty ratio is best in cal tech + its California where can go to many internship

My dream school is the University of Chicago. I'm really interested in the social sciences, big data, and math and the UChicago Econ+Data Science program is perfect for my interests. Additionally, UChicago is an economics behemoth so yeah:). Also I'd like a UChicago tshirt:).
My dream school is Berklee College of Music, since I want to work in the music therapy field and help kids with special needs! (And I’d love to perform/teach private lessons on the side too!)
If I won I’d love a Berklee tee (or Boston conservatory)
How to get in caltech I have BTECH degree in ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING with 9.6 CGPA
Undergrad: Harvard/Stanford/Yale - They are perfect schools to balance rigorous academics and musical activities.
Graduate: Harvard Medical - I always had a very strong interest in human anatomy and medicine, stemming from a surgeon dad, and obviously they offer a world class education and research experience for future doctors
Did you get in?
@@raphasichone7024 Nope lol. Waitlisted at Harvard and Columbia, rejected from Stanford and Yale. I am at Northwestern though - so grateful for that!!
I am from india
So my dream college will be IIT (pretty obvious)
which one?
Scam school
Nuub uni
Gmat or Gre exam results are also required for the field of geology

Tito Adesanya that’s actually my second choice!
My dream school is eventually Caltech and that too I am interested in Astronomy and astrophysics.
Why Caltech?
Well it's obvious point to mention that it is the best school for Astronomy and astrophysics courses other than this they have a wide range of opportunities and projects to work in for this field.
Like for example they have wide range of telescope to work in different bands like the Keck telescope at Hawaii, the millimetre array, the submillimeter array, the LIGO observatory.
Other then this they are among the most trusted institute for projects by NASA even they have NASA's JPL lab on campus.
I would appreciate if I get a t-shirt of Caltech
My dream school is University of Wisconsin - Madison. Here’s why:
1. I was raised in the midwest.
2. They have a good WGSS program.
3. They don’t have a frat school reputation like U of I does.
4. They do the most for LGBT students.
5. It’s on a big lake.
6. They have a lot of great clubs.
7. I have support nearby in Delavan.
8. I’m a Milwaukee Bucks fan so the proximity to Fiserv Forum will be great.

How much duration is physics PhD students
My dream school is Stanford bc I think it has an amazing attitude towards learning and research so to have a t shirt of them would be pretty sweet
My dream school is Cambridge University.I aim to get in there to do my LLM on a sports scholarship!Thats definitely my dream!
My dream school is Princeton because I feel like they are the most unique out of the Ivy Leagues and it’s in New Jersey.
Cal tech is my dream school because I want to become a theoretical physics. I’m so interested in the universe and all of its mysteries.
Cal tech shirt:)
Steven Lee Is this how you get off?
Steven Lee And what about you? A loser sitting behind a screen insulting one for commenting in a comment section when a question was asking in the video . You don’t seem to be anything above average intelligence just trying to make yourself feel important, intelligent, and valid.
Steven Lee I wasn’t going to write an essay about everything I’m interested in on a comment. I gave a basic description of what led to be interested in pursuing a career. Now you tell me how successful you are, just so you know living in your parents house isn’t success. I’m on my path for success, you should find one.
Steven Lee How are you able to tell anything that I like? Calling me “trendy” in today’s standards when you know nothing about me or what I like. I can gather the information that you’re just an unsuccessful internet troll
My dream school is Caltech because of various amazing reasons that I think I really haven't unravelled well. Firstly, It's the college where sheldon (from the big bang theory) studied (yeah, I'm a fan).
Secondly, I really want to be an engineer... I am still unsure which one but it's either aerospace or nuclear engineer. I want to be an engineer because I want to offer my knowledge to spacex and ITER projects. Really, I just want to participate in such projects. The kind of projects that helps resolving humanity's dilemmas. I want to study in Caltech!;)
Dream school: New York University
Why: I love the city of new york and being able to go to a school with no borders and no “campus” is beneficial as it will allow me to be thrown into the real world. Going there will allow me to not only get a world class education but will also allow me to experience the real world and grow up through my time there.
T shirt size X large :)
Lol I love how he was hinting that he didn't like the people he was working with very much. I can relate.
Caltech's my dream school!!
Plot twist: Ananya gets into Stanford.
PS: I've known you for quite some time and we're of the same age as well (you're like a month younger than I am) and I've always known that you'll pick Stanford. Good luck with your future endeavors!
My dream school is Stanford University and the reason I want to go there is the fact that the school is so strong in tech (I want to pursue ChemE) and the area is home to the tech hub of the country but the humanities departments are amazing so I could also pursue my passions in Political Science. The research they do is amazing, the social scene suits me and on top of it all its in California. I would love a Stanford tee shirt. 🧡 ( A women’s large would be great.)
My dream school is UCLA because it's one if the best schools in the US. I would absolutely love a shirt from USLA.
My dream school for PhD is Oxford or Harvard University to study economy program and I wish I have one of their T-shirts
Yale
They have so much history and their engineering lab is super cool
but I would like a UChicago shirt bc I was born there and haven't gotten the opportunity to go back
UChicago size M

I want my school to be multicultural and I want to meet with people from every department science, art, law... And I want to have a great education in the field that I am interested in and at the same time play collage tennis. I think Harvard has it all so that’s why my dream school is Harvard :)
My dream school is Princeton. I love because it’s the place I have most felt at home and I want to double major in Biology and Philsophy. I want a Princeton t-shirt in a medium. Also btw these videos are great 👍
My dream school for Post Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence is MIT or Stanford University. Actually, I am studying my Ph.D. in Computer Science at NTUST... the one with the biggest scholarship or opportunity of work.

Hey Crimson 👋
I've subscribed your channel since a long time ago 😁 and my dream school is Stanford University.
Why Stanford? I did a little research about American Universities which offer Elementary Education major for doctoral degree, so far... only Stanford provides it. It's very difficult to have that specific major for doctoral degree, even in Indonesia. So, perhaps I could have Stanford T-shirt if it's possible 😊
Size: M
Thank you, Crimson 🙏
