[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you seen it work for calibrating RD tier fit? I think rejection may not mean too much. Rejection from a t20 doesn't necessarily mean they will be rejected at all t20. Does a deferral at a school that only selectively defers (e.g., less than 20%) indicate taht you are on the right rung? For example, would a T10 selective deferral cofirm that having T20s as reach schools is appropriate, with the understanding that it doesn't answer whether you will get in. [/quote] You have to look at the whole picture. You have to look at who you’re competing against in your school and how you rank compared to them in RD. You have to look at major. You have to look at gender. You have to look at other potential institutional priorities that certain candidates might bring. Nothing is in a vacuum. And you were always first and foremost, compared against your peers at your own high school and then within your own region. It’s why standing out matters so much much.[/quote]
