I'm sure people would have come for me with torches if I had cherry picked a year that wasn't the MOST RECENT.
So just post 2014 and 2013. I'm sure they'll show similar numbers to Harvard, right?

I think it's a reasonable factor to take into account, all things being equal. There has been so much chatter on this board recently about NCS, where you end up as a B student, etc. that it's obviously not irrelevant.

Scroll through to class of 2015 page.
Of course you cherry picked the high year. Surely you can now post two others with a similar number, right? This should be an easy win for you. Waiting .....
