[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]What is your purpose? [/b] The parents and students are crazed waiting for Ivy Day and the RDs from state universities, as it is.  Also, you can't compare selectivity ratings across the board.  A school that receives 36,000 applications is going to have different selectivity ratings than one that receives 2,000.  A child's "Fit" to a college is the best determiner for success, not an artificial selectivity score.  This unhealthy focus on selectivity and yield figures is the result of schools trying any trick possible to move their institution up one notch on USN&World Report stats.[/quote]

[quote]I'll be using this thread to compile information about the selectivity of the application process at various schools this year[/quote]

Some of us are interested in certain schools. I'm not trying to make comparative statements. I'm just posting compiling various schools where you can read up about what they were looking for this year. Some of  us don't care for MIT, but do for Brown; some don't care for Williams, but do for Georgia Tech. I'll continue just posting links to the articles as they get posted in one thread. That's it. Chill out.  [/quote]
NP. Consider a hobby - perhaps volunteering? [/quote]
