<p>The naviance at my school is pretty accurate because we are required to use it for graduation. Here are the acceptance rates at the ivies for my school...</p>
<p>Princeton 0%
Harvard 3%
Yale 7%
Columbia 9%
UPenn 18%
Dartmouth 19%
Brown 25%
Cornell 35%</p>
<p>I know cornell is easier to get into than princeton.. but really? is this normal?</p>
<p>Maybe the people applying to Cornell and Brown are better fits for those schools? I think it’s more common for unqualified applicants to apply to Harvard/Yale/Princeton because they’re slightly more famous than the other Ivies, if that makes sense.</p>
<p>wouldnt that be true for their overall acceptance rates?</p>
<p>that is a good idea maybe peope from my school are less informed about what it takes for higher unis</p>
<p>chlo: your sample is too small to derive anything meaningful. Given the size of the applicant pools to HYP, the fact that zero or 7% are admitted is near meaningless. The often cited description of “crapshoot” is very apt.</p>
