[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many more international students now. That is a major contributor to increased competition for spots at HYPS.[/quote] +1. And at all the top schools. This is a major change. The other thing is that Ivies used to be more regional. Now they get apps from the whole country. They certainly reject more top students with tops scores than they used to. [/quote] Yep, he addresses all that and still proves that is easier to get into a top school than in the past.[/quote] Sorry. The presentation is rubbish. He talks about the "elite schools" being the "top 5% of schools" (there are 3000+ 4 year colleges in the United States) which means the top 150 and he then changes gears and talks about the top 100. His definition of elite is not the DCUM definition of elite. The top 100 schools include schools like NC State and Drexel. The top 150 includes UMBC and Adelphi. Anything to get on a TedTalk, I guess.[/quote]
