[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems to me that the BS program might better be termed something like "pre-engineering" since Emory itself doesn't award the BSE.[/quote]

Emory is much more difficult to get into than GA Tech. They have the superior engineering program[/quote]
Emory's more difficult to get into than UMich as well, the the Emory detractors conviently forget that. [/quote]

Correct. The latest Emory acceptance rate is 12% while Michigan remains stagnant at 45%. Emory average SAT 1480, Michigan average SAT 1290. It's not even close.[/quote]
Michigan engineering acceptance rate is 19%; average SAT of 1440 and ACT of 34.[/quote]

So true. To be fair though Emory's SAT average is higher than places like northwestern
So UMich's best can't beat Emory's avg?[/quote][/quote]

The official merged data set from D of Ed I was using last year when my boys were looking shows Emory with an average of 1437 and Michigan with an average of 1436.  Also, Michigan has more students >1500 than Emory has students.

Northwestern's was 1500, so above poster is an idiot.

As a comparison, Caltech has a higher SAT average than MIT, but the top 200 students/class at MIT are clearly higher that the top 200 at Caltech.[/quote]
