[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course, the thing to keep in mind is sample sizes will vary depending on school. Brown vs Dartmouth will have a lot more data than[b] Brown vs. Barnard[/b] or Brown vs. Texas A&M. You might only be able to generalize it against peer schools- ie. top 20 universities against each other, top 20 LACs against each other, etc. Wherever there is the potential for a lot of cross-admits.[/quote]

I get your point but Brown and Barnard are peer schools.[/quote]

Not at all. Brown and Columbia are peer, Barnard is lesser.[/quote]

All 10 girls I know who've applied to Barnard also applied to Brown. Draws the same sort of wicked smart hipster girls.[/quote]

Did they all get into both?
Brown's acceptance rate (overall) this year was 9.2%
Barnard's acceptance rate was 17%

We were told by Brown at a 25th reunion event that their numbers were 8% this past year.

And I'm betting, given Barnard is a female only college, that many, many more talented kids of both genders applied to Brown.[/quote][/quote]
