[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of these schools are far enough apart to be put in tiers.[/quote]

Oh come on, DCUM loves to make those fine distinctions between the different tiers of Ivy and NESCAC, we can surely do that for other types of schools as well.[/quote]

Big difference in the kids from our high school going to Lehigh/Bucknell and Lafayette/Gburg/Mberg. Like around the top 15-20% of the class for the former to the 50% mark for the latter.[/quote]

Maybe there are confounding variables or some fudging of the numbers is happening behind the scenes, but Lafayette has much stronger CDS stats than Bucknell. SAT stats, for example: the 25th percentile at Laf is 1350, and the 75th percentile at Buck is 1370. Laf also has a higher percentage from the top tenth of their high school class.[/quote]

Bucknell has a much stronger pipeline to The Street than Lafayette or any of the other schools in this discussion except Colgate.[/quote]

Nope. Lehigh > Bucknell.[/quote]

Not on The Street.[/quote]

At the Big 4 Lehigh > Bucknell

Comparing Laf to Lehigh or Bucknell isn't really apples to apples. It doesn't pull the same kids and isn't strong in the same areas. [/quote]

I’m at the “Big 4” and hire a lot. You are incorrect. [/quote]
