Review Excerpt:

What was the best thing that’s happened to you in boarding school?

"I loved Choate because of the people that I met. The teachers stand out as the best teachers that I have ever had, and the friends that I made there are irreplacable...I compare all my friends in college to my friends in high school, and they don't even come close.
