[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Elon’s 25th-75th percentile SAT range is 1175-1330. UR is 1410-1500. Are we done comparing apples and oranges?

The smartest kids at Elon would be the dumbest kids at Richmond, to be crude about it. [/quote]

What percent submitted? Testing isn't really a comparison anymore. [/quote]

Just look at the CDS. I believe both schools have about half submitting.

I don’t know what to tell you. Richmond has become a relatively elite LAC. Very hard to get in. It has a huge endowment and offers students a lot.

Elon does not attract top students. [/quote]

These statements seem anecdotal. [/quote]

I’m literally pointing you to data. But yes, anecdotally, I don’t know of any kids in the AP track at my kid’s school who considered Elon. But many considered UR. It’s just obvious. It’s like saying USC Columbia is the same as UNC Chapel Hill [/quote]

Actually, UNC and USC are both R1 state flagships. [/quote]

But not all state flagships are created equal just as not all small private colleges in the south are created equal. [/quote]

UNC and USC are not that different. Elon is a national university, which is different than UR, a LAC. [/quote]
