[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The world has changed - State Schools are harder to get into. Who would've thought VA Tech and UVA is not where a good percentage of a VA HS went to.

The hard to get into schools of ole days are not that hard: I was surprised to see Rensselaer is like 60% it was 20-30% just 10 - 15 years ago. Vassar is getting dragged through the mud on this forum - that used to be hard to get into.

And easier schools are now hard: Swarthmore.why? besides the dukakis bump  - anything else?

[b]Some are severely under valued. 
 if Bryn Mawr College has a 98% medical school acceptance rate - why is the acceptance rate to the college only 33%. I thought medical school as impossible to get into these days. If my kid said medical school - I'm thinking this school for Bachelors[/b]. https://www.brynmawr.edu/postbac/about-program/director#:~:text=Our%20graduates%27%20history%20of%20success,rate%20consistently%20exceeds%2098%20percent.

Feel like we are in a college bubble - why apply to xyz? because everyone else is and no one will respect you if you don't go there. And one day - all the single digit acceptance colleges will drop to double digits. Investment devalued. See Rensselaer.[/quote]
