If you spit out your drink on your keyboard because of a true statement, you must spit often. Can't help that. The Revealed Preferences Survey clearer shows, and I've seen it first hand, that when a talented student gets into Brown and Dartmouth, more than 60% of the time said student will choose Brown. With Columbia it's closer, maybe 55%. I really don't think this is arguable. The figure with Brown and Harvard is 89%, Harvard's way, and I've also found this to be true, so I am not saying what I've said out of loyalty to Brown. Brown is just a significantly stronger undergraduate institution, and harder to get in to, than either Dartmouth or Columbia.
