[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uchicago? 1530 seems high for an average admit ED0 there. [/quote]
Peer schools:  Penn Duke JHU average 1550.  1530 is low.  [/quote]

Np, 1530 is not low and that fact that this was posted at all shows how idiotic some are here.[/quote]

1530 is the 25%tile at other T20 schools.

A step down from Rice.[/quote]

So much misinformation. According to the last available common datasets, UChicago and Rice both have 1510 as the 25 percentile, with fewer students submitted test scores to Rice. [/quote]

DP.

JHU 25%tile is 1530.

About the same # submitters.[/quote]

And the median for both UChicago and JHU is 1540. The 75 percentile is 1560 for both. Why are we splitting hairs?[/quote]

Other reference points for test score ranges from CDS:

Yale: 1480-1530-1560
Princeton: 1500-1530-1560[/quote]

HYP are of a different tier, they admit unicorns, future POTUS, SCOTUS, and nobel laureates.  Unicorns are not bound by GPA or test scores.  That's not the comparison to make.  They can easily admit a 1350 over a 1600.  Not an issue for them.

Fine. Here are some more stats (all in the same ballpark):

Northwestern: 1510-1540-1560
UPenn: 1510-1550-1570
Cornell: 1510-1540-1560[/quote]

Is Chicago the same tier as Cornell?  
Anyway, thank you for providing the data point.
Penn's median is 1550.  A whopping 20 points higher than 1533.
NU and Cornell both have 1540, still higher than a 1533.

Again, it's early, let's wait for the final CDS.[/quote]

You do understand the difference between median and mean, right? The relevant number (apples-to-apples) is 1540 for UChicago (from the same year as the other data). My point is that all these schools have the same ranges. [/quote]

Just to add that only 67 percent of UPenn students submitted test scores, which could explain the slight difference in the medians compared with the other schools. [/quote]
