[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a psychological difference between schools that accept less than 10% of applicants and those that accept more. Most of the Ivies accept fewer than 10% -- I think Penn and Cornell just a tad higher. Some people just want to go to the most competitive school without regard to fit.[/quote] What nonsense. 10% is magical? Acceptance rates were higher in the past.[/quote] Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford & Columbia accepts around 5%. MIT around 8% but hey, it's a self selected group that applies to that school. The other Ivies, Cornell, upenn, etc are around 10% what HYP+ use to be. Yes, getting into these schools are a lot more competitive than even 10 yrs ago. They attract students internationally. http://web.mit.edu/facts/admission.html Now isn't that nice:)[/quote]
