[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]agree on Williams it’s closer peer school to HYPSM than the lower tier ivies Duke JHU Northwestern [/quote]

Not at all true. Peer school is determined by peer group.  
Williams (and Amherst) peer group from pre-Test optional shows 25th%ile-75%ile[b] 1420-1540[/b], or estimated median around 1480. That is lower than Vanderbilt was (1470-1570) though with their TO preference currently they may never get back to the strong peer group they once were.

Ivies: 
             25-75th%ile

Harvard  1460-1580
Penn.     1460-1570
Yale.       1470-1560
Princetn  1460-1560

Brown    1440-1560  
Dartm    1430-1550
Cornell   1410-1530
Columbia: never released it pre-TO. They knew they were lower than most ivies, maybe the lowest.
Chicago: TO for a long time, who knows where they stand but likely on par with lower ivies.

Duke      1480-1560 on par with the top-4 ivies 
Hopkins  1470-1550 middle of the ivies
NorthW   1430-1540 on par with bottom 2 ivies

WashU.  1480-1560 on par with ivies
CMU:     1460-1560 ""
Rice:     1460-1570 ""

ND        1400-1540
GrgTwn  1380-1530

In other words Williams has a peer group better than Cornell., similar to Dartmouth and could be better than Columbia. 
Below many in the Top15-20, no way Top 10.

Where is this crap coming from?  All the numbers are wrong!  Hopkins has a 75 percentile of 1570, for example.[/quote]
