[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this data is suspect - says that .5% of admitted students had Cornell as their top choice over Princeton. I can confirm absolutely that there has never been a student who had Cornell as their top choice over Princeton [/quote] I wouldn't be surprised if some of these students intended to major in engineering: Cornell is especially strong in this area and arguably better known for it than Princeton (although the latter also has a good engineering program). Nor would I find it shocking if a disadvantaged student who wanted an academically rigorous school preferred Cornell over Princeton from a social perspective. If there are specific reasons you think that no one would ever choose Cornell over Princeton, I'd be interested in hearing what these are. [/quote]
