If a bunch of schools are overrated it follows there must be a bunch that are underrated. Caltech and MIT are obvious. Everybody knows Cornell is a damn fine school. Carnegie Mellon and NYU seem to produce a lot more notable alumni than Emory or WUSTL. Berkeley should be top 15 maybe?

I think there's some West Coast bias here. Berkeley seems perfectly fine at 22. On the East Coast, Berkeley, UCLA and USC are basically fungible "good California schools" one step below Stanford.

LACs as a whole seem like where the privileged come together to get away from the scary hard working immigrants at flagship states and get Ivy-like grade inflation without the extraordinary kids in the student body to justify it

Dart would be in between that and a legit prestige school

This is violently wrong. Anyone who has a passing interest in the UC schools knows Berkeley > UCLA, especially for STEM, and that USC is a rich kid school but has a pretty great merit scholarship for kids who are in play for top 5 schools and will almost certainly get Berkeley.

They were going West Coast WUSTL by 2004, buying smart poor kids with scholarships and whatnot. They probably had a median SAT somewhere in the 1300s then. That's selective by any reasonable measure.

Yeah, yeah, some people went to better schools that were more selective. So did I. But USC hasn't been a slouch for quite a while.

Not really a rich kid school anymore.

% students from top 1% family income:

Trinity: 26

WUSTL: 22

Yale: 19

Harvard: 15

USC: 14

NYU: 11

Michigan: 9

MIT: 6

UCLA: 4

Berkeley: 4

CalTech: 3

Definitely mediocre, though.

NESCAC school

Had no idea its acceptance rate is 34% now. Always had rich kid reputation and very preppy, but now appears to be somewhat selective. It was 57% in the mid-90s - actually thought it would have been higher: https://www.courant.com/news/connecticut/hc-xpm-1995-04-03-9504030045-story.html
