[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anecdotal, but the three kids we know at Chicago right now were rejected from [b]every Ivy they applied to[/b], including Cornell.[/quote] NP - Where they applied is the key thing and one from which broader assumptions cannot be drawn unless those three kids and many more applied to every single Ivy. [/quote] Everything that is said by both the boosters and detractors is purely anecdotal and assumptions when it comes to heads to heads comparisons. And, of course, other factors come into play that may have an impact. Financial aid packages, for example, can bribe students to Chicago over Cornell or Penn, and vice versa, so who knows what the real "first" choice is. I think this is a silly discussion. It's a damn fine university, always has been even in the days of 60+% admissions rates in the 1990s, and the Ivies are damn fine schools too. [/quote]
