[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is the CDS Oberlin reports, which was linked to a couple of pages ago.  Just like a couple of pages ago the point that Oberlin's average admitted test scores are quite different from enrolled.  [/quote]

Oberlin published the common data set with a preface that it also publishes its own Quick Facts as a way of differentiating "between the College and Conservatory in a number of areas."  The common data set combines the academic test scores for both the College of Arts and Science and the Conservatory.  The common data set question specially requires colleges to include information for "ALL enrolled, degree-seeking, first-time, first-year (freshman) students."  For Oberlin, this includes conservatory students.

If Williams or Swarthmore had a world-class conservatory, their combined academic stats would see them way below top 10.    [/quote]

Ok Oberlin is best!  Let’s stop this because you don’t have sound reason. The same is true for NYU but no one gave any of their scores a break for their significantly larger creative schools. There is nothing more to say. There is a group on this site that believes Oberlin is top 5 LAC despite multiple data points clearly stating that it is a good school but not top 10 or even top 20 of LACs. [/quote]
