Congrats on Emory. Just get your ED results?

DP but WashU isn't that much better than Emory. they're practically the same for most of America.

Rice: Hogwarts, but in a sauna

I live in Houston and have nothing but good things to say about Rice (except for the weather). It is unique though. I can usually tell I'm talking to a 40-50 year old who went to Rice within 5 minutes. There's a brainiac, motivated, creative side to them. Some of them could do well at the cool kids table, but none of them would want to. It's clique-y in the best sense of that word.

Is this a diss towards Emory? Emory and WashU are legit the same school in different fonts. Also Emory has a better reputation score on USnews (4.2 vs 4.1).

It isn't better at all, actually worse.

It doesn't have Emory level outcomes, it definitely is a top below that level.

Is there a list of the reputation scores?

Tufts has higher SAT scores. Emory from the south is more like a Emory:Tulane with Tufts:WashU in StL

Seriously, and the plants they have on campus are somehow make an even more humid campus. I was already sweating getting out of the car, but callus was much more humid.

Also if your child gets allergies, run away from Texas. It’s serious there.

Interesting assessment.
Where would a kid who’s at home at the cool kids table, but also self-gravitates towards weird quirky entrepreneurial nerdy exploration go?

Don’t even bother looking, they are not meaningful. US News gets a 40 percent response rate to their reputations survey.
