For college admission purposes: What does it matter about cute IVY matching Twinsie outfits, if all of them have a <5% admit rate?


Because our kids get into these schools.


The vast majority of our kids don’t.

Nice try, Columbia booster.

Agree, although Cornell & Columbia are really not pairable with each other or with any other Ivy League school in my view.

Very common to see Yale/Brown pairings because the schools are so liberal. And very common to see Princeton/Dartmouth paired up because focus on undergrads and known as the most conservative (which is relative, of course) Ivies.

Harvard/UPenn pairing makes perfect sense to me based on pre-professional students.

Columbia fits in with Yale/Brown on the liberal scale, yet also has a lot of pre-professional types.

Cornell fits in with any other Ivy League school that has a College of Agriculture.

Agree with this pairing as well.

Princeton is in a league of its own.

Harvard-Yale.

All the rest are dogwater.

The real test is if you can convince anyone else of your opinion!

DP - you are not representing either of them very well. Even Rhodes scholars look better when their views are expressed with Grace, humor and modesty.

I would have said Harvard and Yale pair up, as do Columbia and Penn, and that there’s no point into artificially pairing the other four.
