[quote=Anonymous]Oh and FWIW, the reason I’m distinguishing between t20 privates and public flagships is that the former have more resources to devote to admissions, have significantly smaller entering classes, and are geared to deal with a comparatively narrow range of student abilities/preparation. By contrast, GPA and scores are a better predictor of flagship admissions. And flagship schools are more likely to have introductory survey courses pitched at a level similar to AP. Flagships, both of necessity and by design, do more of their sorting post-admissions. There are equally brilliant kids who are getting great educations at both types of schools.[/quote]
