Washu accepts every highstat student it thinks it can enroll. Emory is much more holistic.

This is a lie. Notre Dame, Georgetown, CMU, WashU have higher acceptance rates. Even if you look only at ED1 ( which is a biased way to look at it) WashU has a 35% ED1 acceptance rate to Emory's 32%.

And how does Emory's freshman profile compare to Washu test score wise?

Emory 1490-1570
Washu1500-1570
So a 10 point difference

You guys are pathetic. I can tell NONE of you have kids at selective schools.

I have 3 at top 10s. Let's not overgeneralize. I like correcting trolling incorrect info.

Hopefully the OP knows to do her own research.

Many posters here are using unreliable, possibly made up ED numbers.

Not me, direct from the Emory student newspaper:

Emory University admitted 865 Early Decision I (ED1) applicants on Dec. 13 with a 32% acceptance rate. In total, 705 students were admitted to Emory College of Arts and Sciences (ECAS) and 364 were admitted to Oxford College, with 205 of those students being admitted to both campuses, according to a University press release.

https://www.emorywheel.com/article/2023/12/emory-admits-early-decision-i-applicants-into-class-of-2028

The 32% is Emory and Oxford College together. So WashUs 35% is much easier to get into. Using just Emory College numbers Emory ED1 is 26%. To Washus 35%. 26% is very close to Vandys and Hopkins ED1 rates.

Let's top making emory sound more selective than it is. it's admitted test scores are lower than enrolled test scores at Hopkins, Vandy, Washu.

Omg, still playing this game? People have repeatedly specified that the acceptance rate was particularly high for Ed1 for Emory, not the combined rate for both rounds of ED. For ED1 for the class of 2028 the Emory acceptance rate was 32 percent.

That's last year.

Easiest is subjective. By ED acceptance rates and test scores, probably UVa, Emory, Wustl, Northwestern as summarize here:
