[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Undergraduate Tiers
1A) Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Yale, Princeton
1B) Columbia, Penn, Duke, Chicago, Caltech

2A) Northwestern, Brown, Dartmouth, Williams, Amherst
2B) Rice, Cornell, Pomona, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, Cal, Notre Dame, Emory, Swarthmore, UCLA, Wellesley

3A) Michigan, NYU, USC, UVA, Tufts, Middlebury, Barnard
3B)UNC, Boston College, W&M, Wake, W&L, Davidson

Tier 2A is very debatable is there are a lot of great schools that could go there. [/quote]

I know this thread is old, but I like this breakdown.[/quote]

I turned down a 1B, two 2As and my safety 3A to attend a 1A, but it's still an arbitrary exercise in foolishness.  [/quote]

Should Pomona be 2A with Amherst and Williams.  It is usually in there with the other two in most conversations.  [/quote]

I thought people usually included Swarthmore with Williams and Amherst. Personally I agree with this grouping.  It seems well thought out, although 2A and 2B are more debatable than the others. I would just include WashU and Carnegie Mellon in 2B;  Georgia Tech in 3A, then Case Western in 3B to complete it. [/quote]
