For the top colleges, which one is relatively easier to get into?

It’s interesting to see someone else’s perspective on certain schools. I think your first two tiers are probably pretty accurate. The other three, in my opinion, have some flaws. The way I see it, certain schools are self selecting and the admission office at schools like Vassar/Wesleyan seem to choose appropriately. Likewise, Smith and Wellesley are self selecting too! Additionally, you have a school like W&L up there on the list which is highly competetive for some kids, but not so much for legacies or “kids from good southern families.” Colgate should be on par with Middlebury. Those are just my 2 cents!
