[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tufts is one.  
WF?
Tulane.[/quote]

Tulane, Tufts, Chicago are all in the "ED or bust" category.  Either much easier or much harder to get into than rankings indicate, depending how you apply.[/quote]

Wild differences between these. I literally don’t know anyone that has been rejected from Tulane. Uchicago uber hard and WF middle of the road.[/quote]

Agree Chicago is the most difficult admit.

But it is also school dependent.  Horace Mann sends a large drove to Chicago each year.  At these feeders, an average student can get in ED.
At non-feeder high schools, yes it can be "uber hard".[/quote]

In fairness, Horace Mann is one of the most rigorous HS in the country (I don't have a child there), widely known for grade deflation. Even an average student there is still a top student.[/quote]

School matters.  Stuy is another Chicago feeder, large droves I believe.  Haven’t checked out their matriculation for a while things might have changed.[/quote]

Stuy is a feeder pretty much everywhere.[/quote]
