[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]W&M is a fine school. Students choosing VT over W&M is a newer and significant trend. [/quote] But students aren't really choosing VT over W&M if they aren't studying engineering. Which they always did. W&M profile of admitted students is stronger than VT and their acceptance rate is lower.[/quote] Again, you are [b]grossly mistaken[/b]. Many kids choose VT over W&M, regardless of major. I have a humanities major at VT who had zero desire to attend W&M. To assume VT is merely an “engineering” school is to vastly underestimate its appeal. [/quote] I'm talking about general patterns--there's not evidence that is happening on average for kids with the qualifications to get into WM. Look at the 25-75th score ranges for the non-engineering VT students, they are nowhere near the level of WM. [/quote]
