[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HYP no longer makes sense since Yale has not kept up with peers, particularly in STEM. I would put Penn above Yale.[/quote] Your views are irrelevant. [/quote] Same to you.[/quote] But there is a fact, it is much much harder for one to get into Yale than Penn. It does not just statistically stop at one having a lower acceptance rate than the other, students applying to the schools already self filter themselves before any applications are submitted. Students are conscious that they would only apply to HYP when they are at top of the top class in top high schools with top test scores and extraordinary EC, barring some special categories not based on open competition which exist in certain percentage in all elite universities. When somewhat short, they try schools like Penn and Columbia, etc. That's just the way it is with most students and HS counselors' mentality. [/quote]
