[quote=Anonymous]The issue isn't the number of students with top stats, it's the number of students with top stats who behave in the same way. They are all applying to the same handful of prestigious, need-blind schools with better than average aid packages. So for this subset of schools, in addition to having the stats to get in, best to bring something extra, somehow demonstrate that you aren't just carpet bombing schools with extra aid. If the aid package is the top goal, it's much better to apply to lower ranked schools that are buying stats. At the very least put these schools in the mix, because top students who don't run the real risk of a shutout.[/quote]
