[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Based on my read of the list the top few colleges offered admission to 680 students.  Assuming 50% of them took the admission, that's 340.  Out of 430 students.  79% admit rate to top schools!  That's pretty impressive.

Even if you think some of these schools are not "top" you would still have over 50% of the kids going to "top" schools.

Here's my basis for the 680

UVA	191
W&M	142
 Michigan 	65
UMCP	54
UIUC	48
CMU	36
Georgia tech	35
UC Berkeley	34
Cornell	25
Upenn	15
Duke	13
Chicago	12
MIT	10

Total	680

Why not do the same analysis with actual enrollment figures from last year?

Including some missing schools to the above analysis and using actual admits from the link above, 237 of the 430 kids end up going to "top" schools.   Here's the list.
