[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, daughter was deferred. She’s now going to be applying to [b]several peer schools like Harvard, Princeton, and Columbia[/b], but her heart was with Duke. She’s doing alright though![/quote] Columbia may be a peer to Duke, but not Harvard and Princeton. https://www.quora.com/Is-Duke-considered-inferior-by-people-that-went-to-Harvard-or-Columbia[/quote] C’mon are you really going to nitpick, you get PP’s point. All hyper-competitive schools with sub-5% acceptance rates, most of the kids at all 4 of those schools will go on to lead similar careers except for a few outliers here and there[/quote] She said Harvard and Princeton were “peers” to Duke. They are not. Nitpick away![/quote] You may be able to make the argument for Harvard, but what’s so special about Princeton? Kids who go to Princeton are very similar to kids who go to Duke and some other Ivies. Professors at Princeton are not much different either ( I read through professors’ bio and their publications) [/quote]
