Maybe if Duke enrolled the same freshman stats. Hopkins is enrolling a stronger student body compared to what Duke admits. Hopkins SAT scores (enrolled): 1530-1560 Hopkins ACT: 34-35 Percent in Top 10%: 99% Duke SAT (admitted): 1500-1560 Duke ACT (admitted): 33-35 Percent in Top 10%: 90% https://admissions.duke.edu/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Duke-2023-Class-Profile.pdf |

Duke also offers full tuition to Carolina residents making less than 150k household income which i'm sure also helps yield:

| Arguing JHU vs Duke for several pages with no stake and each knowing the other won’t change their mind is actually peak DCUM |
| it's not about convincing since the duke posters are thickheaded trolls. it's about showing facts when they over glorify an overrated school. |
Oh wow those 30 sat points must mean a lot to you. These classes are analogous. |
You picked a class profile from 5 years ago for class of 2023 for Duke while picking 2027 for John Hopkins… look at 2027 for both: https://web.archive.org/web/20240624152235/https://admissions.duke.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/2027ClassProfile.pdf |
11% of the Duke student body are athletes and as a Power 4 school, nearly all are recruited. A fair number likely don’t have top stats. However, do you think anyone cares that Cooper Flagg may not have top stats considering he will be the #1 NBA draft pick next year? I see another post with recent Duke stats so it’s impressive they have these averages (though I get with TO the athletes may not be submitting) yet are still competitive in one of the hardest conferences. |
Only 55% of JHU kids submitted scores vs 93% for Duke. You think that missing 45% would bring JHU averages higher? |
Source? |
Duke has D1 athletes. |
Mate you used Duke’s class of 2023 profile. Their class of 2027 profile is: Duke SAT: 1520-1570 Duke ACT: 34-35 Also they’re an athletic powerhouse which would bring down their scores. They actually have better averages than Stanford who also admits lots of athletes. Duke and Stanford are basically the gold standard for combining academics and athletics. |
| stanford is the gold standard. let’s not conflate duke with stanford athletics which has higher standards for athletes and more ncaa championships by far |
Political Science (the single biggest feeder into law schools)? Statistics? Public Policy? All top 10. |
Cool, now do the hard sciences and engineering. |
What are the biggest similarities and differences between JHU and Princeton based on your research? |
