<p>mpicz, I assume you are referring to the “BS is not helping in getting into HYP” part of my statements when you say anectotal evidence suggest otherwise? Well, I used to believe that compared to PS, BS is neither signicantly increase nor decrease your chance of getting into the top top colleges - all things considered it comes down to a “wash out”. Reason being - it’s true that there are more competitions and legacies etc. in top BS, but they send about 30% of the graduating class to ivies, on the other hand it’s easier to excel in your local PS but only the top of top in an average PS get to those colleges and it’s never garanteed. However, if we consider people’s opinions on CC are mostly “anecdotal”, then the anecdotal evidence is that I haven’t yet heard one person actually say (Are you one? :)) top BS is helping/increasing your chance in getting into HYP. That’s where my “conclusion” came from.</p>
