[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who uses the term "top ivy" has no experience with this kind of school and is BSing you. It doesn't even make any sense. What is a "bottom ivy"? Cornell or UPenn? Dartmouth?[/quote] Honey, you are so sad! Listen up, and learn. For some, "top Ivy" = Columbia. Harder to get into than Princeton in most recent admissions cycles. Yet the widely understood "HYP" reference to 7% admissions rates is obviously no use here if, for some bizarre reason in DCUM-world, you find yourself talking about the specific ways your kid beat 7% admissions odds and you don't want to completely out your kid. So "top Ivy" it is. For others, "top Ivy" is a way to avoid the snotty-sounding "HYP" without encouraging that stupid troll who always comes around to sneer that Ivy=Cornell with it's 15% admissions rate (the shame!). (Note to the rest of you: I LOVE Cornell, Dad and many relatives went there. It's a GREAT school.)[/quote]
