<p>pirateq, you can find lots of great information if you Google a college by name with Common Data Set. Here’s the link to Carleton’s for 2011-12: [Carleton</a> College: Institutional Research and Assessment: Common Data Set (CDS)](<a href=“http://apps.carleton.edu/campus/ira/basic_carleton_data/CDS1/]Carleton”>http://apps.carleton.edu/campus/ira/basic_carleton_data/CDS1/) Section C has the SAT info.</p>
<p>Macalester’s is here: [Macalester</a> Common Data Set](<a href=“http://www.macalester.edu/ir/cds/cds.htm#CCC]Macalester”>http://www.macalester.edu/ir/cds/cds.htm#CCC)</p>
<p>They are both competitive, Carleton more so. Maybe you’re referencing my “safety” comment about Mac? Ds is a male URM with a CR+M of 1500+ who’d get points for geographic diversity as well. For a school that takes almost 40% of its male applicants, I was OK with putting Mac into the match/safety category.</p>
