[quote=Anonymous]When I went to college in the 80s we had guides that put colleges into groups (“highly selective” “selective” etc). I actually think that’s a a better way. We focused more on details and while I remember talk of whether people were applying to highly selective colleges vs other categories, it wasn’t as big of a deal. The only real difference were if people were applying to ivies and even then it depended. Like back then UPenn wasn’t a huge deal. It was thought of as harder to get into Penn State main campus as a freshman! [/quote]
