[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that it is prestigious in some circles but I agree with that it doesn't have the universal name recognition of the ivies and elite publics. If I hadn't looked at the ranking before writing this post I would have thought that it was ranked similarly to BC and BU.[/quote] This is off. Vandy is top elite -- is it MIT, Uchi, HYP -- no but it is in the next tier. Rankings are all messed up now. You cannot use them for anything. There are about 40 elite schools. Yes some are more elite than others but there are about 40. BC is in there -- BU is not. Not the same kids/same results.[/quote] Maybe not in old Grammy’s mind, but BU is about the same these days. It likely has a more diverse group of kids and a wider spectrum compared to BC, but many elite Boston-bound kids these days split between these schools based on their preferences.[/quote]
