Hi,
I thought it would be helpful for the ourselves and future applicant classes if we listed what we perceived to be the difficulty of secondaries we have received. Please feel free to add your own opinions on schools by copying, pasting, and appending to the list. I have divided the difficulty level in 4 groups:



EASY

Penn
UT-Houston
Harvard-NP
WUSTL
UT-Southwestern



MEDIUM

Michigan
Baylor
Cornell
Stanford



HARD

Harvard-HST
Hopkins
Duke (was it harder in previous years?)
UChicago



ARE THEY ACTUALLY GOING TO READ ALL 50000 WORDS?

Vanderbilt
