The difference in academic quality of students entering Swarthmore/Haverford/Harvey Mudd is not significant. How do you determine academic quality? By SAT/GPA? 25%-75% SAT is higher at Harvey Mudd. How about Reed college?



The difference in student quality is definitely significant. All three schools have very bright student bodies but that doesn’t mean that the brightness is equal. I’d order them like this:


Mudd
Swat
Harverford
