[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Penn had a 40% acceptance rate in the 90s. It was still considered a good school. [/quote] +1. Current system is absurd. So much obsession with pushing acceptance rates down further and further to signal exclusivity.[/quote] Only at 33 colleges out of like 3000. Did you even bother reading the article.[/quote] Yes, we were talking about the ones where the acceptance rates have declined. Did you even bother reading the comments here.[/quote] No we aren't...we are talking about OP's post and the article which is that colleges are easier to get into which runs counter to the prevailing DCUM philosophy. [/quote] The entire first half of the first page is about schools where it has gotten more competitive, not less, including the reference from the article about the 33 schools. My comment was in response to a comment about Penn. Not sure what’s so difficult about this for you.[/quote]
