Dartmouth vs. Brown vs. UPenn

<p>Tewkewl = Y7ongjun? The grammar has partially improved, but the stilted writing style remains.</p>

<p>pbr: I asked this of another poster and never got an answer…where do you get your “admitted” numbers? USNWR doesn’t list them; neither does Collegeboard or Princeton Review or Fiske or any other guide I know. Most college sites list their enrolled scores. If it’s so preferable to use admitted scores, why are they so hard to find?</p>

<p>Or do you just have inside info? :)</p>

<p>^No inside info, bonniemom. I’m just as ignorant as most others on this site…</p>

<p>When my two children were applying to college, I found that the individual university websites had the most reliable and up-to-date data. I noticed that some published data for enrolled students, and some published for admitted students. Columbia, for example, publishes data for accepted students. My Columbia son liked that data because it related directly to his odds for admission. Enrolled student data does not really give a prospective applicant meaningful guidance, because in most cases the enrolled students’ objective achievements (class rank, test scores) are less impressive than the admitted students’ benchmarks. Again, the real problem is that some colleges present apples and others oranges.</p>
