That’s not what elite colleges are like. They aren’t academic murder houses where people compete to survive.

Once upon a time, they were very difficult, but that was 40 years ago, and back then they recruited from a very small group of highly educated elites, who could do that.

It’s not anywhere near that difficult now.

But even then, it wasn’t like that.

The admissions process is.

Duke accepted about 3,300 freshmen last year from 37,300 applications.

Princeton had 34,700 applications and accepted 3,100.

U. Chicago accepted 2,300 from 32,280 applications.

Stone cold competition.
