This was the question originally asked: "What are elite, or very good schools (say average ACT 30/31 or higher), have the most down to earth students? That aren't super competitive amongst students even if students have strong aspirations?"
The average ACT opens it up to quite a few schools.

What's your standard of elite?
DP, elite is something like top 10. Certainly not beyond top 20.
This entire line of thinking is idiotic
Yes, just because you could only end up with a LAC, which most competitive people don't even have interest in applying. You don't become an elite school if it's easy to get in, period.

So you're saying No. 6-ranked Carleton isn't?

I know people from a wide variety of "elite" schools and the people from the aforementioned are consistently some of the most well-adjusted and "down to earth" sort, even if they're in traditional prestige industries or hotshot careers.

+1 Agreed. These are amazing schools and recruiters love them. Some of the folks on here have no clue.

Any school with acceptance rate higher than 10% these days is definitely not an elite school. Not saying <10% is necessarily an elite school though.
