Who does Wash U think it is?

<p>I'm kind of embarrassed to be posting on a non ivy forum, ugh, but I just wanted to know, who does Wash U think it is with the admissions/rankings games its been playing for the last two years? Is it trying to get an invite from the ivy league? Cause that aint happening, I'll tell you that right now.</p>

<p>LetsBeReal is clearly a raging ■■■■■. Please do not feed him/her. This will be my one and only post on this thread - I’m only even replying for the sake of high schoolers who lurk this board.</p>

<p>If you look at past post history, the OP has an obsession with ivy’s and with Brown. Yet doesn’t seem to know/understand that the ivy league is an athletic conference that just so happens to have some of the best schools in the country.</p>

<p>An “ivy” designation does not automatically grant a school the title “best school” - this is why several universities (namely MIT, Stanford, Duke, and yes, WashU) are ranked higher than several of the ivy’s. </p>

<p>

… If the OP isn’t a ■■■■■, he/she seriously needs to grow up.</p>

<p>Looking at your post history, you seem to like Brown.</p>

<p>Well.</p>

<p>Brown is lower ranked than WashU. Sources: </p>
