Let's quibble over semantics: what do we really mean by "highly selective" (Ex: Pitzer v Williams)?

@marvin100 I agree with you. I’m pushing back against the hair splitting degrees of selectivity. To me the acceptance rate is just a numerator over a denominator. That’s my point. It’s not a useful measure of how to select a school, and if you recognize that then there’s no need for contortions to explain away the results.
