If I had a choice between Xing Yi, Wing Chun, and Hung Gar - why should I choose Xing Yi over others?

(I ask because the school I may be going to teaches all three, but only lets you specialize in one... I think) Thanks - and Congrats for all that other fun stuff!

Ok, so I cant say that its better (it is). Instead i'll say that it works?

In essence its simple to learn, difficult to master. Dont need to be a brick out-house inorder to be good at it. Weapons are par-de-course (which always makes things fun) and I've found that people tend to shut up and listen when you say you do xing yi. Unlike wing chun or hung gar, where my teacher is always more badass than yours...

But it is better....
