[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is superior to every ivy that isn’t Princeton. Williams has always been extremely elite[/quote] That may have been true 30 years ago, but not so much today. There has been a lot of separation between the top universities and the SLACs in recent decades. [/quote] I am very confident that you are basing this comment solely on your ignorance rather than any real world objective criteria.[/quote] Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore, and Pomona COMBINED get fewer applicants than Vanderbilt or Brown or Rice or Northwestern or Penn does. And schools like Berkeley and Michigan get ten times the number of apps that any WASP does. It's a very small subset of students that apply to Williams. So it's not a great indicator of where smart students go today. The numbers are too tiny to be significant. [/quote] And all of the schools you listed get fewer applications than BU ... what's your point?[/quote]
