I have witnessed for the last ten years the absolute smartest over-achiever ambitious Catholic boys and girls go to Notre Dame. Top 5 overall students in their class at selective prep schools. Maybe its standards were weak 10 or 20 or 30 years ago, but these days it's only admitting [b]brilliant [/b]kids in the very top of their class.

I personally do not consider Northwestern, Vanderbilt or Emory to be elite. And while I do genuinely respect Wash U, it has basically zero name rec. And Berkeley is a over-enrolled degree mill full of cutthroat strivers, it's only romanticized by alums and boomers who still think it's the 60s.[/quote]

Why in the world would you include Notre Dame in this.  Total joke[/quote]

It’s Notre Dame mom crowd-sourcing ND approval again. Just ignore. She started another thread n the wonders of ND.[/quote]

Her kid didn't get into Princeton. And the reason, he's not "brilliant."[/quote]
