New "Revealed Preference" Ranking Released

<p>“The percent has nothing to do in relative with princeton Stanford. yes Stanford has a smaller percent of its lost students going to Princeton, but going to harvard and yale instead. Princeton has a one higher percent of its TOTAL lost students going to Stanford. This has nothing to do with Princeton-stanford Cross admits. When looking at only the total number of Princeton-Stanford cross admits (just Princeton & Stanford, not the total number of students lost) Princeton wins a higher number/percentage of those choosing between princeton and stanford only.”</p>

<p>Since Princeton does not directly compete with Stanford for students, I would have to say that Stanford overwhelming defeats Princeton in terms of attracting the most qualified student body. Stanford has just recently beat my school, Yale, in the overlap of applicants with Harvard. Anyway, let me show you guys an article which should help you understand the whole admissions landscape:</p>

<p><a href=“You’ve requested a page that no longer exists | Stanford News”>You’ve requested a page that no longer exists | Stanford News;

<p>In the published statistic, Princeton only accounted for 8 percent of cross-admits who chose Princeton instead of Stanford. The other numbers are Harvard (28 percent), Yale (20%), and MIT (13%).</p>

<p>MIT certainly does compete with (and win) against Princeton. Where are you getting your statistics sarasote?</p>
