[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Feels like this year's ranking is very similar to last year's. Someone should compute the average change in rank (rise and drop both treated as positive) for last year's t50 schools. My guess is the average is less than 3. Repeat this for last year's t100 and my guess is the average is less than 5.[/quote] Where TF have you been??? It is always the same. Very little change. I’ve been watching these ratings since the 90s. The only change was when some schools—NE, UChic., etc started driving up applicants and plating the mailing and ED game, test optional to appear more selective. I mean what, you think Harvard and Princeton will drop out of the T10? [/quote] ED game was invented by UPenn and Ivies back in the days. Applicants apply and commit for reasons. [/quote] Yet it’s Hopkins, Tufts, NE, Vandy etc that have two rounds of ED. ED1 & ED2–those are the true gamers - test optional (though Hopkins finally reverted) [/quote] The majority of Ivies have ED. Schools like Harvard and Yale now have the absolute high ground, so they can pretend they're something special. [/quote]
