Full-Ride at UChicago or Brown

Brown.

Grade inflation.

Laid back culture.

Better college experience.

if you're applying to law school then why are you asking this on WSO, where 90% of this forum studied "Finance" or "Accounting" at IU kelley type schools and shits on people who are actually passionate about their studies

also keep in mind that at UChicago you have to apply to the LLS major in your second year, and the acceptance rate is around 25%—so it's not guaranteed.

Brown. I personally know several friends who went to UChicago. According to them, the default mindset (at least among undergrads) is that it sucks but you just gotta do it and you'll be in a better spot in life. Really, really depressing to hear. One of my buddies who visited me at my state school one year literally told me he was amazed how people were generally happy at my school

Not sure what your worldview is like, but Brown is pretty "out there", even by the standards of higher ed. Was just talking to a friend who's in his first year there, and he said he's asked to give his pronouns persistently to the point that it can get uncomfortable.

The unofficial motto of the University of Chicago is that it is the place where “fun goes to die”. They take pride in not having grade inflation. Which is great, except you are competing against kids who go to places that do. Also, you want a job in banking, which is a social occupation where you actually have to learn how to interact with adults and not just solve equations. If your goal is going to grad school and try to win a trip to Stockholm (ie win a Nobel Prize)…go to Chicago. Otherwise go have fun having three ways with RISD girls.

Brown is an easy choice here
