[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cornell is the easiest to get in and the hardest to get out. [/quote]

If it's the hardest to get out, [b]it's because they admit lower quality students. [/b]

I've never known anyone go to Cornell who was any smarter than kids going to other state schools.  The brilliant Ivy-bound kids always went somewhere else. [/quote]

No, it's because Cornell actually expects kids to earn their degree. Not a Cornell supporter but it's well known fact in college circle. [/quote]

BS.  Cornell admits less qualified students.  Put them in other Ivies where they wouldn't hold their own intellectually and suddenly they would look "harder to get out."

Mind you, Cornell students aren't dumb.  They just are on U. Md. level for the most part, not HYP, Stanford, MIT-level.  [/quote]

BS. The landscape is so competitive these days that HYP and the other ivies just don't have room for all the qualified kids. Any kid who gets into a university that accepts 15% or fewer of students is highly qualified and very impressive.

Signed, Wharton grad (and yes, it does sort of suck)[/quote]

I agree.  The 75% for SATs at Cornell is 1520/1600 for goodness sake.  There's a huge overlap in ability between Harvard students and Cornell students.[/quote]
