[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am going to call foul on these posts. Besides the abundance of x v Y posts popping up since last week, Brown and Duke are very different. Hard for me to imagine a situation where a kid has what it takes to be admitted to both and then posts such a throwaway question.[/quote] Right? Why would someone apply to both of these?[/quote] Brown and Duke have always been grouped together in some people's minds, because back in the day (think 80s and 90s) they were known as the two well regarded schools that you could most readily buy your kid into. For some people there is actually a certain cachet to that because of the crowd that it attracts. I am not suggesting you can buy your way into those schools today any more than any other top school, but the cachet-related mindset is still a thing for some.[/quote]
