I believe the poster said SAT. And I'm sure that's true. Barnard is not "all about the numbers." Actually I believe, but I may be wrong, that Wellesley's SAT is higher and Barnard's GPA is higher.

I think in terms of academic rigor, it's a wash.

Your parents don't understand that there is not a neat hierarchy of schools that can pinpoint which school is superior academically. The USNWR rankings take many other things into account.
