My dc got into two of these Boston schools and was WL at Rochester.

[quote=Anonymous]URochester and Case Western are good options if you can't get into the colleges in the Boston area, BU, BC, NU, Tufts[/quote][/quote]

That's not a common occurrence based on acceptance rate, student stats, and yield rate combined.

Those Boston schools are [b]more competitive and selective[/b]

Not really

ACT and SAT Ranges:

BU:
31/34 and 1360/1520

U Rochester
31/35 and 1370/1520

Northeastern
33/35 and 1430/1550

Tufts
33/35 and 1440/1550[/quote]

Yes really, because again student stats is one part of the equation.
We would look acceptance rate and yield rate together with student stats.

The Boston schools have significantly lower acceptance rate and better yield rate.

Student stats alone, Tufts and Northeastern are close to T20.

Acceptance rate has nothing to do with the quality of the education.  UR's acceptance rate and yield rate both seem related to its location, not to the quality of accepted applicants.

The stats of incoming students in terms of academic performance are virtually identical.[/quote]

Bingo!  Put UR in Boston and it wouldn't have a yield problem.  [/quote]
