[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the posters who thoink it would be pointless to rank them.  if you are going to, why not do it by Test scores?
School  75% SAT
ND	1550
Colby	1510
Colgate	1510
BU	1500
UVA	1500
BC	1490
Berkley	1490
Tulane	1490
UMD	1460
Villanova	1460
Fordham	1430[/quote]
UC is doing away with considering the SAT.  Berkeley probably won't even be reporting it in future Common Data sets. [/quote]
And Colgate and Colby have been test optional, which makes the scores higher. Dumb way to rank.[/quote]
Every school was optional, and most of them filled 25-30% with TO kids, so proportionately it's still the same result.[/quote]
All of the "rankings" in this thread are dumb, but this one gets special stupidity points for lining up schools in order of their ~93rd %-tile (i.e., the 75th %-tile among the score submitters, which obviously is a small, self-selected group) scores on an optional test. Congrats. Or something.[/quote]

What's special about Colgate and Colby?  
They were some sort of 'Special Test Optional' unlike other schools?  
Where did you get the ~93rd %~ tile?  
Calm down.
