[quote=Anonymous]10:16 again, to your question of whether this creates more competition for second-tier institutions: Greater selectivity was always going to create more competition for the second and third tiers anyway! Not because a few families are declining the lottery, but because it's a lottery in the first place! You may not be looking at UMD or UVA closely if your kids are HYPSM-capable, but plenty of decent students are getting rejected from their state university as well. Decent, meaning weighted GPA of more than 4, multiple AP classes, normal extra-curriculars. The college landscape has changed completely from what it used to be a decade ago. [/quote]
