I find the Emory one particularly odd. Chicago has the marketing/admissions strategy and Cornell that’s Ivy heat, but I’m surprised there are so many invested in Emory. I think it catches strays as people knock it down when compared to others. I have no connection, just find it odd so many people would care enough to get riled up about it. It’s a great school so I’m not knocking it though, there all are objectively.

LOL Emory has the real reason to be hated. It's the biggest cheater school in the history of the US colleges.

Furthermore, clueless Emory moms talk about other schools 'gaming' the rankings when their school is the biggest actual cheater school.

I don’t care enough to read links, but didn’t realize. Knew Columbia was shady but didn’t know about Emory.

Ten years ago was 2015. Except for Northeastern, none of these were anyone’s safety.

Most of the schools were easy admits back in the days. Many Ivies had 50 60 70% acceptance rates. Ivies invented all sorts of gaming including ED.

Which Ivies had 50 60 70 % acceptance rates and when? Provide sources.

As a tangential statistic, decades ago the Ivies were scattered across three tiers when viewed by standardized scoring profiles: https://books.google.com/books?id=ykQEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA100&lpg=PA100&dq=life+magazine+1960+college+admission+tufts+bowdoin&source=bl&ots=5BKi5WV8SQ&sig=GFl_LycVnJV8AGIXLX2P9kW97I0&hl=en&sa=X&ei=sO1TT4uPK-jm0QG8ifC3DQ#v=onepage&q&f=false.

Wow! Great to see those old stats, thanks for posting!
