The stats of kids at our school go to US News T10s like Chicago, Hopkins, Northwestern are always in a tier below the stats of ivy kids.


Northwestern is top 10. Cannot say the same for lower ivies.

UChicago and JHU are lower than all ivies. It’s an insult to MIT/Caltech when you try to put them in the same sentence.


It’s hilarious how you & OP sit at home discussing prestige and bashing UChicago and JHU when you probably went to a state school and could never survive there, let alone be admitted.

Nice trolling but Chicago and Hopkins have been top 5 in enrolled freshman stats for the longest time. Northwestern is usually top 10.

So HYPMS, Caltech, Chicago, Penn, Columbia, Brown are T10s.

I don't know why Hopkins is not even in T20.

Please explain what citizensbank.com is and how they have credibility in creating any list on college rankings.

Johns Hopkins is not in the T20 for that list because it includes LSACs, some of which are generally considered better than JHU. That list is actually pretty good.


almost right as amherst and williams are bottom 50. take off bowdoin and pomona and it is spot on

I have noticed that whenever someone says they attend a “Top 10” it is invariably Chicago or Hopkins. Just like the kid attending an “Ivy” goes to Cornell.


meh both have higher freshman stats than many ivies
