[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting hypothesis and at first read sounds counter-intuitive, but looking at our own school (a top feeder private), something has changed with HYP admitted kids in the past 2-3 cycles. The solid smartest kids applied ED to Penn, JHU, Duke, NU, Cornell...schools they feel would be more predictable and they want to be done by Dec. HYP admits have been mostly legacies, URM/first gens with slightly lower stats (you can tell from Naviance), and kids who went for the lottery (mostly boys). It's a weird mix whereas the Penn/JHU/Duke/NU/Cornell ED admits are more well-rounded strong kids who have been known to be top of class since middle school. [/quote] Very true at our private as well.[/quote]
