[quote=Anonymous]This is because of the nature of the DCUM audience. Low stat and test optional kids, particularly URMs and first generation applicants, are less represented here. Also, a relatively small number of applicants who applied to many (20+!) schools are distorting the situation. This is also happening in real life, and necessitates the colleges putting more applicants on waitlists, and taking more applicants of those waitlists when the other schools (Ivies) issue their RD decisions. However, grades, test scores and even ECs have become inflated in the years since the parents applied to colleges. [/quote]
