Yes, but the points weren’t on target in the context of what this student wants to accomplish.

For example, the comment about whether Williams has the same name recognition as Berkeley among average Americans ignores the fact that this student’s goal is to go to grad school for public policy. Both Williams and Wellesley will have instant name recognition with anyone in academia and both are highly respected.

The comment about Wellesley no being in the same league as Berkeley and Williams seemed needlessly gratuitous, insulting to the OP who picked it as one of her 3 finalists, and frankly sexist. Whoever thinks that Wellesley isn’t in the same league as the others is just plain uninformed. It has produced 2 Secretaries of State, one of whom has also been a presidential candidate, a space shuttle commander, multiple well known authors and journalists, doctors, judges, scientists, and actors.
