[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of all the schools you could look into, you picked Georgetown then reported back here. Why? You didn't point out that Notre Dame also only had two peer institution choose it back, and neither that did are top 10. I mean, who do you think are peer institutions of a selective, urban, medium-sized, Jesuit university?[/quote]
Georgetown and Rice chose Notre Dame so that's 2. I know GU is Jesuit but it's a bit odd that only 1 top 25 school chose it. I feel like DCUM makes GU out to be more prestigious than it really is, especially when there are threads that say GU was better than WashU or Emory when clearly these top schools seem to think the opposite.

Just because they're not "peers" doesn't mean they're not both considered "prestigious." Emory and Georgetown are very different schools. [/quote]
Georgetown said that they thought Brown, Dartmouth, Cornell, Duke, Notre Dame, Columbia, Upenn, UChicago, Johns Hopkins, and Northwestern were peers and none of them except Brown returned the favor. Georgetown thinks very highly of itself as not even including the schools ranked around them. How could they be so off base? [/quote]
