[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's wonderful that colleges are generous with money and Pell Grants for those in need of financial assistance. I don't see how that factor makes a school more academically superior to any other school.[/quote] Yes, very difficult to understand. School A admits the top 5% of applicants but cherry picks the kids who can pay the most. Student body is very smart but mostly UMC+. No class mobility. Not a huge measurable difference in outcomes. School B admits the top 5% of applicants and is also need aware and makes a special effort to find students across all socioeconomic categories, including the poor. Student body is not mostly UMC. Substantial class mobility, the school makes a measurable difference in outcomes. Who can possibly solve the puzzle of “which school is better?” [/quote] School B is better.[/quote]
