[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]59% Michigan vs 41% Berkeley

That is odd.

I have not known anyone who chose Michigan over UC Berkeley. I lived in Chicago for many years, and UC Berkeley is generally considered as good as (or a little bit lower than) Chicago or Northwestern. Michigan is far away, even though it is within driving distance.

56% Michigan vs 44% UCLA

And of course the most telling of all:

Parchment also says that 1 out of 3 students accepted both to Harvard and Michigan choose Michigan, which is patently ridiculous.  I take Parchment with a huge grain of salt. [/quote]

78% Harvard vs 22% UVA

I can’t believe two out of ten admits would chose UVA!  It’s totally ridiculous! [/quote]

Probably in-state donut hole kids. Harvard is $84K/year net price for the kid of two GS-15 Feds with another kid and own their home in VA. Versus net price of $38K for UVA in-state.
