[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting how Yale went down a notch.
They took 4 kids at our school last year. All legacies. Very strong students but nothing exceptional. [/quote]

In the real world, they haven't gone down at all.  Yale is still between #2 and #4, which is where it's always been.[/quote]

Princeton has been #1 for years, but I'll bet a significant majority of cross-admits are choosing Harvard, Stanford, and MIT over Princeton.  I think Yale is very likely favored as well.[/quote]

Meh! I think Yale has gone down. Princeton is obviously very strong for undergraduates but location turns some people off and the eating clubs culture also turns some kids off. I’m not saying either of these things should matter but I know they do for some kids[/quote]

Try to visit Princeton in cool weather when it is in session and has some activity in evidence.  On a quiet swampy summer day it does not present well.  I tired to tell my kid it was just the day we visited but could not get him to even apply.

Interesting.  It's been years since I"ve been on campus but all I remember were the gorgeous buildings. What was it that turned your kid off?[/quote]
