[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are some I compiled from the CDS (so these are for enrolled students- admitted students generally have a higher profile):

One comment on the percentage in the top 10%.  Across the schools listed here, probably only about 1/3rd of students will have had class rank provided.  So the percentages actually are of that 1/3rd, not of the entire enrolled class.  It tends to be lower at the better schools.  At Stanford, only 28% first year students submitted class rank.  Here is how it reads on the CDS:   "Percent of total first-time, first-year (freshmen) students who submitted high school class rank:  28%".

SATs and ACT scores are skewed by superscoring.  Some schools, like Northeastern, have low scoring student start in Spring (they start with a co-op program in the fall), so they don't have to include them.[/quote]

The number of highly qualified applicants is pretty stable.  Admission rates have been driven down by getting more unqualified kids to apply and by the qualified applicants applying to more schools.[/quote]
