    He seemed to have weather as a dominating factor in this list. It was the only distinction he made when declaring CalTech #2. MIT is definitely superior to CalTech and is more widely known to be the top engineering school, so if it weren't for weather, I'm sure he would have switched MIT with CalTech.

    I think people need to realize that it’s hard for them to choose 10 schools to compare since comparing a school like Berkeley is completely different to a school like Amherst. Both great schools, but size and variety of major make them super different. There are so many colleges that deserve to be on this list, and honestly there should just be a video titled TOP 10 PUBLIC SCHOOLS and TOP 10 LIBERAL ART SCHOOLS or PRIVATE SCHOOLS to compare schools on a more equal level.

    I agree, and would add it depends on what you're majoring in. Berkeley is head and shoulders above other school in the math and sciences dept. Not every school is great in every area, and that's not even taking into account post grad areas of study....like Law, or Medicine. The University of Virginia comes to mind for Law.

    For reference, U of M Ann Arbor is well known in my area of Michigan for being very tough to get into as a freshman but much less difficult to get into when you transfer, especially out of another lower ranked U of M campus. I’m not 100% sure if that’s intentional on the school’s part, but if someone gets into the Ann Arbor campus as a freshman, it’s considered a huge deal.

    I find Michigan more accessible than people think, especially for graduate studies. A family friend of mine settled near Detroit when he immigrated here and went to Dearborn then Ann Arbor. He’s a die-hard Wolverine and doesn’t care about prestige. His kids are going the same route. A lot of Penn State late bloomers start at a regional campus and finish at State College. Sometimes being a local is the only thing you need to get into these schools, at least in post-grad life. The admissions office will understand.

    Simply put. The best university or college is the one that works for the individual. I went to N.C. State University and cannot imagine getting a better education in Engineering. I had 3 job offers before I graduated including one in Research Triangle Park, which is very competitive. I later went to a private law school and it was just much more expensive than a state school. I probably paid double the cost of going to UNC law school for the same education. The most important thing is work ethic. Second is the major you study. Third and least important is the school you attend.

    Yes...and no. The differences in a school like N.C. State and, say, Stanford are pretty stark. Not only does Stanford have vastly more resources to supplement your education, but the proximity to STEM jobs immediately after graduation and the positives with student networking at Stanford are two of its most valuable aspects. I agree that any competent and gifted student at NC State will do well. However, you'll have many more opportunities for success AT schools like Stanford and AFTER you graduate. Your first two points (i.e., work ethic and major) are givens at such schools because of just how selective they are. You simply won't find mediocre students on campus. As the old proverb goes, "Iron sharpens iron." So, you'll find yourself rubbing shoulders with many of the nation's top students. Moreover, the tangibles and intangibles at such top schools are often more difficult to grasp at lower ranked public or private universities (particularly those with smaller endowments and proximity a bit further outside of areas with more research jobs in particular fields). While the 'research triangle' exists in North Carolina, it's a bit smaller in total jobs and opportunities compared with Stanford's proximity to the Silicon Valley or Harvard's and MIT's proximity to Boston-Cambridge.

  • @viewfromthehillswift6979

    Percent admitted is not a measure of selectivity; it is a function of number of applicants and predicted yield rate. A real measure of selectivity is what it takes to get in -- stats, extracurriculars, legacy points, etc.

    what's not talked about enough is how at some of these schools, the acceptance rate is higher if you're transferring from another school that's less competitive (or expensive). University of Michigan's regular acceptance rate is 23% while it's transfer acceptance rate is 39%... just some potentially useful information for anyone looking into colleges right now there's no shame in going to a local institution for your first two years. I'm in community college now but I'm active in my school clubs and organizations, have a high GPA, and have been making connections and I plan on applying to Michigan and some other somewhat selective schools (Emerson College, Trinity College Hartford to name a few). I would not have even been considered with my high school GPA but I've improved tremendously during my time in college which colleges care about the most. sorry this was longer than I expected it to be, but just a helpful tip!

    Selectivity is determined by how many people apply. If they have a freshman class cap of 3000 and 50000 apply thats an acceptance rate of 6%. The less apply the higher the rate even though the same caliber of students are accepted.

    In most states outside the northeast, usually that state university is the oldest and most distinguished institution in the state. In the New England and the Middle Atlantic States this is not the case because of the presence of distinguished private institutions dating back to the 18th Century (i.e, the Ivy League) .

    Lol as a senior applying to a metric shitton of schools, here's my advice for a 4year game plan for stanford- 1) have an astronomical Gpa- take every AP IB class you can find. 2) 1500 SAT and 34 ACT minimum 3) at least three SAT subject tests with 730 minimum in each 4) start something. Because president of something else. Start another thing. 5) impress teachers NOW. their rec letters matter more than you think. 6) if you're a STEM kid, do a crap ton of research, get into competitions and WIN at them. Publish a paper before December of senior year. 7) if not a STEM kid then become varsity in a sport or a nationally recognized writer or artist or whatever you're into. Simply doing it won't be enough. You'll need to be the best. 8) when the time comes to write you essays, start early and write and revise and wrote and revise and write and revise x1000. Good luck.
