I dont think test scores really matter that much for measuring the “betterness” of a school. I feel like GPA and class rank are probably better indicators as they show grit and other qualities. It is interesting that Emory doesn’t show avg enrolled stats but admitted stats but on sites like college data (however reliable it is) there is a large discrepancy between enrolled gpa( 3.7 roughly) and admitted (3.8 ish). To me, this implies a lot of people think Emory as a good school, but a good “safety school” in that sense, which is also shown in the low yield rate. Again, Emory is a great school but the statistics and the vibe i get from many others is that its a school that is a tier lower than many of its peers.
