[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]any ivy league, Stanford, MIT, Cal Tech, Duke, Chicago, Northwestern, Amherst, Williams, Swarthmore, Pomona.

Below that non-ivies could be Hopkins, Georgetown, UVA, Michigan, and Cal Berkley. State schools by definition are less prestigious.  [/quote]
You made a huge jump to get UVA and Gtown into the conversation. Bottom elite at best. What's the next tier after "Bottom Elite"?[/quote]
UVA and Georgetown are much more "elite" than Umich. Especially Georgetown. I honestly would consider Umich as a step below the bottom elite. [b]Umich is not that hard to get into[/b]. I would add UNC and USC in the Umich category. [/quote]
So admission rate determine rate determines level of "eliteness"?[/quote]

[b]Michigan has an overall 18% admission rate. [/b]That’s close to UVA, with an overall admission rate of 16%. For engineering and CS, Michigan’s reputation and status as an elite college is much stronger than UVA.

This admission rate is dropping like a stone this year-105K applicants in the undergrad pool. Whomever is saying Michigan is an easy admit OOS and esp to CS or anything STEM is talking out of their ass. You do the math. Need Ivy level stats for this admittance-and good thing they are getting the high stat NOVA kids that UVA deems unworthy!![/quote]
