What are Stanford's Peer Schools?

because Stanford values something a little bit more than they numbers in admissions, you cant really fault them for it



No one is faulting Stanford for accepting students with lower test scores. In fact, I agree, it makes Stanford more selective because Stanford wants people with many more strengths than just test scores. But, this characteristic only makes it more accurate to say that Stanford and Duke are not peer schools. They have way different admission standards and therefore way different students.
