[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the top schools -- ivy or otherwise -- have low admission rates. [b]If you are trying to avoid heartache and stress, aim for top 50.[/quote][/b]

Top 50 except schools like Georgetown, NYU, USC, Northeastern, NYU, BU, BC, Tufts 
Their acceptance rates are low to mid teen on par with some of the T20 like Rice, WashU, Notre Dame, [/quote]

What? You sound vey ignorant. What are these magical high acceptance rate schools in the T50? For example, Tulane had an acceptance rate of 8% this year. Most (all?) T50s are extremely competitive. I would also add that T50 schools are all TOP schools. [/quote]

Don't get too excited. 
Those were examples, and I forgot Tulane.
Again these shools are relatively more competitive almost on par with some of the T20 schools.  
We are talking in terms of T20 competitiveness.

All the T50 schools are great and competitive.
However schools like Case Western, URocheser, etc. in T50 are in the 20s 30s range while those are particulary more competitive almost at T20 level.

NP: That was a thoughtful and knowledgeable response, considering the PPP's rude name calling. [/quote]

I am the PP and I was not being rude or calling names. I was using the word ignorant to mean a lack of knowledge about the college process- not as a pejorative. [/quote]

And, you were wrong, making you uniformed and turning the assignation into a pejorative.[/quote]
