    Realist: It’s small, very hashkafa (as opposed to textual) based and yeshivish in hashkafa-meaning not into college, yes into kollel, etc.

    Nanny: I live very much in town! But I guess it just shows that you have to make sure everyones discussing the same thing when you’re talking or it’s all worthless. Everything is so relative. I was discussing seminary x with a friend whose background is pretty far left and she says-“that’s as far right as you can get!” Whereas with my school friends, they can’t imagine going any further left…

    gluck with your decision.

    It’s a good question,and I’m curious to know the answer too. Does anyone posting here know the answer? I am curious as to why we braid altogether, I don’t care so much about the amount of braids. Thank you.

    Definitely helpful. For example, I would probably just say that’s “very frum.” To me, yeshivish is more the black hat type.

    Tiferes is black hat type, and very very tznius. Like your questions about music are probably not even on their radar. bs, tiferes, mr, hadar (dont know about Ateres, but seems like youre getting enough information about that.)all have good solid girls, not jappy. As far as academics, bs and mr are known to be very academic, which doesnt sound exactly like what you want.

    wishing you the best.

    Achvas Bais Yaakov is supposed to be a very stimulating intellectual experience with a varied group of thinking girls. The staff is excellent, culled from Neve’s finest.

    Nanny, I think it would help if you would define to us what your definition of Yeshivish is, because you see how everyone is answering based on where they come from. To people who are more modern, BJJ is as far right as you can get. To other people, it may seem less extreme than other seminaries. It depends where you are coming from. So if you want an answer that will help you, you should let us know more about where YOU are coming from, and your definition of yeshivish.

    Hatzlacha.
