<p>Easier such as lower stats, less competitive etc. Thanks!</p>
<p>There are only eight of them. Look it up.</p>
<p>Please define “easier”.</p>
<p>There is only one league. Look it up.</p>

<p>Edit: Just to be clear, this was a joke.</p>
<p>Statistically, Cornell and Dartmouth are a bit more accessible than the other six. Of course, that’s like saying that Shaq isn’t quite as tall as Yao Ming!</p>
<p>Dartmouth is hard, Penn is easier. Cornell is the easiest from what I have seen</p>
<p>Dartmouth is extremely hard. SAT ranges for regular students (excluding URM and varsity athletes) at Dartmouth are higher than those at Columbia, and much higher than those at Brown, Penn, and Cornell.</p>
<p>From hardest to easiest:
Harvard
Yale, Princeton
Columbia, Dartmouth, Brown, and Penn
Cornell
I’m splitting hair here.</p>
<p>However, I prefer the this:
HYP
the other five</p>
<p>Actually Penn is more accessible than Dartmouth, if you base it on acceptance rates. Cornell (the largest Ivy) and Penn have slightly higher acceptance rates than the others, but for all practical purposes, there is no significant real world difference. No Ivy is substantially “easier” to get into than the others.</p>
<p>If you’re looking for “easier”, maybe the Ivies aren’t for you.</p>
<p>Looking for Ivy League schools that are “easier” to get into is like looking for Olympic sprint finalists that are “slower.”</p>
<p>Here’s a list of SAT scores:</p>
<p>Dartmouth

<p>Dartmouth has the highest percentage of student athletes at over 20%; that’s why Dartmouth’s statistics always impress me.</p>
<p>Look into Stanford, MIT, Caltech, Duke, and UChicago</p>
<p>Among these, easiest to get into would be UChicago, Duke, and Caltech in that order.</p>
<p>But in reality, they’re all difficult to get into…</p>
<p>“Among these, easiest to get into would be UChicago, Duke, and Caltech in that order.”</p>
<p>Totally agree. UChicago and Duke are arguably easier to get into than all the Ivies.</p>
<p>Princeton Review rates the admissions difficulty at Cornell and Dartmouth at 98 on a 60-99 scale; the others at 99. Acceptance rates alone aren’t accurate because there may be differences in the typical qualifications of the applicants pools for different schools. And SATs aren’t accurate on their own since they don’t account for how many students are seeking how few spaces. But yes, any distinction within the Ivies is definitely a matter of splitting hairs.</p>
<p>@IvyPBear</p>
<p>Your testing statistics for Penn is outdated. The one for Class of 2014 is as below</p>
<p>CR: 660-770
Math: 690-780
Writing: 680-770
[Penn</a> Admissions: Incoming Class Profile](<a href=“http://www.admissions.upenn.edu/profile/]Penn”>http://www.admissions.upenn.edu/profile/)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>they also rate Gtown, Northwestern, and Uchicago at 98 in terms of difficulty. There is no way in hell that these three schools are as selective as Dartmouth or Brown.</p>
<p>“Your testing statistics for Penn is outdated.”</p>
<p>Those aren’t accurate either, when one considers that most applicants aim for the School of Arts and Sciences alone. Nor are those for Cornell and Columbia.</p>
<p>Ranges also fluctuate slightly year by year.</p>
<p>School of Arts and Sciences always receive the most applicants in general</p>
<p>To further split hairs: IvyPBear, your testing statistics for Brown and Columbia are also outdated. College Board published statistics always lag a year or two behind current school website statistics. How much smaller than Dartmouth are the undergraduate student bodies at Brown, Columbia and Penn?</p>
<p>cornell i guess with the highest acceptance rate</p>
