Anonymous wrote:Just look at yield rates for Columbia, even below Penn and Chicago

This list gives you a general ballpark idea of how schools are ranked. But it doesn't change people's mind much. I guess the Princeton alumni still work at US News. But very few believes Princeton being #1. Its yield rate in the 60% range is the lowest out of HYPSM. No one believes Chicago is tied with Stanford. Duke's yield rate is less than 50%. Few believes Columbia being #2 either. If you want to be in the top 5, you need to get rid of ED and see what your yield rate is with only EA as HYPSM do.

This is silly and biased, there are 100 different metrics that US news can choose from but according to you rankings should be based on yield?!?!?!

Yield is a very important metric. It measures people's real commitment to a school, hundreds of thousands of $ for the next 4 years. With the yield in mind, Princeton would be #5:

1. Harvard (80%+)
2. Stanford (80%+)
3. MIT (high 70%)
4. Yale
5. Princeton

Why can't you look for yourself.

I’ll help you both. UMD is tied for #59. Definitely have to scroll for a while to find it.

So no more UVA s UMD threads?!

Lol. The College Park boosters will still post from their Fantasyland where UMD is considered on par with UVA...

Almost no one chooses to go to Chicago or Columbia if they think they can be accepted at HYPSM.
