<p>Oh yeah, and in case the pro-Davidson folk on this thread keep trying to deceive everyone about how Davidson actually stacks up to Duke…</p>
<p>Average SATs:
Duke: 1360 - 1540
Davidson: 1240 - 1430 </p>
<p>Duke students score much better</p>
<p>Feeder rankings (% students going to top 10 law/biz/med schools)
Duke: Ranked top 10, sending 8.6% of students, slightly better than Columbia or Penn
Davidson: Not in the top 25, which is the lowest rank the survey goes to </p>
<p>Duke obviously wins again</p>
<p>Student HS Class Rank:
Duke: 87% in top 10%
Davidson: 78% in top 10%</p>
<p>This one is close, but again Duke takes it</p>
<p>If you take the time to look up other things, like Rhodes/Truman/Marshall scholars, or National Merit Scholars, or ratings from global businesses on how much they like students from certain colleges, Duke clearly wins in all categories</p>
<p>So, as I said before and now have displayed with facts, Duke is totally superior to Davidson academically, and those who are pretending Davidson is as good as Duke are not being straightforward with you</p>
