[quote=Anonymous]At least at the LACs, making some very conservative adjustments for athlete recruitment, Questbridge etc. seems to make the entire purported "admissions" advantage disappear at most institutions. For the "unhooked", participating in ED thus seems to be selling an option for zero. Anyone have solid data suggesting otherwise, i.e. that ED provides a material advantage for non-athletes at any highly selective school? I guess a question that would be pertinent to this analysis is what % of incoming LAC athletes are recruited. At a lot of schools the overall varsity participation rate is 20-35%, suggesting that some what more than 25-30% of each incoming class will be varsity athletes due to attrition. But are 100% of the freshmen athletes recruited at SLACs these days or is some lower number?[/quote]
