Amherst College?

Firstly, I know most of you guys probably hate reading HSers post on here, but I don't know how to get information on LACs. (tips would be great). If there are any recent alums/current students from Amherst that could answer these questions, it would be very helpful.

  1. How many kids want to do IB/PE per class?

  2. How many kids actually get a BB?

3.  I've heard that recruiting at Amherst is starting to decline, is it true?

  1. I'm not an athlete, so would I be screwed for recruiting?

5.  Are there "resume drops" for most BBs? (I've heard contradicting things)

  1. Any other crucial information I need to know would be amazing
 
  1. Probably like 20-30
  2. Probably like 10 BB across IB, S&T and AM
  3. No, still pretty decent
  4. No; it might be a little harder bc (some) teams have pretty established pipelines (squash, golf) but you’re fine
  5. Probably like 4/5 BBs

— Current student going into IB

 

Other kids are split between EB (I.e EVR, LAZ, PJT, CVP, etc) MM (mostly Blair, Stifel) some smaller Boston boutiques and then PE (recently Audax, BX, Vista)
