[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Go for Harvard. You would forever second guess yourself if your son got into Duke ED and locked himself out. Duke's yield rate, even with ED, is on par with Cornell.[/quote] That's not exactly a genuine claim. Duke only loses the cross-admit battle with HYPSM, Caltech and narrowly to Columbia, ties with Penn, and beats everyone else. Caltech, Duke, and Columbia are known to have low yields because they lose staggering amounts to HPSM each year. Penn does as well but it notches a higher yield by taking the most kids ED out of any of those schools. Cornell loses its cross admit battle to every other ivy, Stanford, MIT, Duke, and Caltech. Even Northwestern might beat Cornell for cross-admits. So yield numbers can't be compared eye-to-eye.[/quote]
