Oh please. So which is it, one second Emory yeild protects and most students apply ED, the next it's a backup. Stick to one narrative.

Both can be true.

Emory enrolls noticeably weaker students with % submitting test scores all within similar ranges

I see a 30 point difference between Emory, WashU/Vandy. That's only 3 questions.

And 10% more students submit test scores are Emory so that likely accounts for the 30 point difference.

This. The differences in ranges between Vandy/WashU/Emory are likely explained by differences in percent reporting. Hopkins is the only one with materially higher scores.

But all of this is silly- these are all highly selective schools with holistic admissions. These is no way of knowing how your student will be evaluated against the pool their in for that school the year they apply. Assume their chances of getting into any of them is quite low (lowest for Ivy plus) and have them apply to a balanced list. Only ED to a school they would truly be happy at.

Check the class rank percentages. Washu, Vandy test scores were also significantly higher than emory pre-optional. I expect this to continue after the policies end as well. Emory is a fringe top 25 and it shows.

Easiest are California community college transfers to Berkeley or UCLA

Not really. Can't be a first choice ( ED1) and a backup.

You must be new here? Ever heard of holistic admissions?

You need the threshold grades/rigor to be reviewed. Then, STAND OUT.

This is simply not true. Mine was accepted to 2 Ivies, 3 T10s (non-Ivy) and waitlisted at WashU
