[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So my kids went private (two different graduation years) to ivies below HYP. At our top private, Chicago Northwestern etc. was for kids who didn’t think they could make Ivy but wanted a decent rank. They didn’t think they could even get Dartmouth, Brown, or Cornell. So they might have EDed 1 Cornell or Dartmouth say but ED2ed Chicago. [b]Of the ones that ED1ed northwestern, they did so because they saw top of class applying to ivies and knew they would lose out. [/b] Don’t get me wrong great schools but most I think would take any Ivy out of our area due to East Coast bias. Duke is more competitive over Brown, Cornell, and Dartmouth. [/quote] This is what I saw too. Top 10 students apply to Ivy (except for Cornell), Stanford, MIT. Kids around top 20 applies to schools like Northwestern, Hopkins.[/quote]
