That significantly higher than all the other schools in the top 25. [/quote]

Where are you getting 18% from? It’s definitely lower. The acceptance rates from last year at top schools show Notre Dame is on par with many of the best colleges.

Schools significantly more selective than Notre Dame:

Harvard (3%)
Stanford (4%)
Caltech (4%)
Columbia (4%)
MIT (4%)
Duke (5%)
Yale (5%)
Brown (5%)
Princeton (6%)
UPenn (6%)
Dartmouth (6%)
Vanderbilt (6%)
Northwestern (7%)
Cornell (7%)
John’s Hopkins (7%)

Notre Dame’s Peer Group Acceptance Rates:

Rice (9%)
UCLA (9%)
Tufts (10%)
WashU (11%)
Carnegie Mellon (11%)
Berkeley (11%)
Georgetown (12%)
[b]Notre Dame (13%)[/b]
Emory (16%)
UNC (17%)
Georgia Tech (17%)
UMich (18%)[/quote]

No horse in this race but I think this basically reaffirms my existing impression. Ivies, Stanford, MIT, Duke, etc. are still in a different league than Notre Dame, and instead their peer set is more like WashU, Georgetown, and Emory. Those are great schools too but not quite the level of the first grouping.[/quote]
You could easily put Cornell, Vandy, Northwestern in the second grouping. [/quote]

Cornell, Vanderbilt, Northwestern, Georgetown and Notre Dame are all a tier above WUSTL and Emory.[/quote]
That's a huge lie. Emory business is better WashU, ND, Georgetown, and Vandy. WashU medicine is better than all of them. And they're all ranked around the same. [/quote]

Totally Wrong.
ND and GT business are a level up from Emory.[/quote]
No they aren't.

We are talking about undergrad.
Ranking wise, USN&WR ranked them all same, but then they also have Ohio and UIUC ranked same as well.

Poets&Quant ranked ND and GT just little higher.

In reality, Emory is clearly a level down.

If you have a kid interested in business major, you better not provide any advice.

I was talking about the university as a whole not just undergrad hense why I said MEDICINE is better at WashU. Some of you love moving the goalposts. Also that's just Wallstreet, Emory has much better consulting placement 
https://www.bloomberg.com/business-schools/industries/consulting/
Here Emory ranks 2nd for consulting

Usnews ranks Emory higher because it takes more into account than just finance.

Great, let's get simple.
University as a whole, ND has been a solid T20 school for very very long long time.
Emory Not.

Oh you're an ND booster, if you really think there's a meaningful difference between 18 and 22. But what about the Times/WSJ ranking...
https://www.timeshighereducation.com/rankings/united-states/2022
Emory-20
ND- 28
P.S. Emory was ranked 20 in 2017 by US news. So not too long ago. You sound unhinged.  
[/quote]

NP. OMG Emory booster...go start your own thread. YOU sound unhinged.[/quote]
Not PP but it's you. You have to be unhinged to think ND is somehow better than WashU and Emory, especially when it appears both are ranked higher on at least one ranking. 
Also, not many top schools see Notre Dame as a peer.

I never made such a claim.  I am just marveling at the Emory booster on the ND thread who just can't let go.[/quote]
You both can't seem to let go, at least Emory booster brings the facts. [/quote]
