At what point (#) in the rankings can one rely on objective stats for admission?

<p>We looked at the Naviance (hs datapoints of gpa/SATs) to look for patterns. The tippy top schools of course were less consistent, less predictable. Naviance was a great tool - it may require require extra hs investment of labor for data entry on top of the fees. </p>

<p>We did the same sort of thing on mychances websites. It includes volunteered datapoints (not validated, not a statistical cross-section) from other applicants to the college. It was an eye-opener for the tippy top colleges - LOTS of rejected high stats applicants.</p>
