[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Typical DCUM thread --

OP: My DC likes Wake Forest. What other schools are like Wake Forest?

Answer: Wake Forest is full of Southern People.  DC doesn't really like it.

Answer to actual question:

Harder to get into: Emory

About the same: Tulane, University of Miami

Easier to get into: SMU, TCU, Baylor, Louisville

Louisville is literally one of the worst universities in the country.  Not even close to any of the others you mention.  [/quote]

LOL there are 4K non-profit unis in this country and many (most?) of them have 95+% acceptable rates and less than 40% grad rates. I can guarantee Louisville is no where near the bottom!![/quote]

NP here. OP asked about schools that were comparable to Wake Forest.  How is Louisville comparable to Wake Forest?

Wake: 8,000 students, suburban campus, avg SAT 1390, avg ACT 31, acceptance rate 29%
Louisville: 23,000 students, urban campus, avg SAT 1190, avg ACT 25, acceptance rate 70%

Louisville might not be the worst school, but it's certainly not in Wake's league.  [/quote]

192/4000=top 4.8% of schools in the US. You suck at Statistics.[/quote]

You suck at Reading.  OP asked for "similar", "comparable" and schools "like Wake" and you're making a futile attempt to suggest Louisville.  Which shows you either know very little about Louisville or very little about Wake.

Please, show me your argument for how Louisville is comparable or similar to Wake?  With any data.   [/quote]
