Well, you would be wrong. In fact, Tulane’s are higher. But go ahead a spew BS. For the class of 2027:

Boston University - 41% of admitted students submitted scores
SAT 1441
ACT 32

Tulane - 50% of admitted students submitted scores
SAT 1448
ACT 33[/quote]

Provide source[/quote]

Not sure why you can’t google it yourself, but okay.

You have to look at the SAT of ENROLLED freshmen, not those who appplied and were admitted.[/quote]

Did you even read the links? If you read the second link, those are the stats of the ENROLLED freshman at Tulane. I guess BU’s enrolled stats could be even lower. [/quote]

It may not be logical the way you've drawn such a conclusion based on what you wish to believe. 
However, the two schools are located in completely different regions, each with its own distinct characteristics, but both are likely to attract capable students.

Additionally, because BU has a large student body, it's possible there is a broader spectrum of students. 
FYI, here are the ED1 statistics for the class of 2028 at BU.

* The average GPA for accepted students was 3.87
* Of the students accepted, 35% submitted standardized test scores. The average SAT score was 1454 and the average ACT score was 32

Especially, the regular admission competition is known to be more intense, and there are many variables that will play a role in the students' decisions to enroll.[/quote]

Seriously? Are you that annoyed that Tulane has slightly higher stats? You sound crazy. [/quote]

I apologize, if it sounded that way.
