[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any confirmation about the higher number of applications this year?[/quote] We will hopefully know more in a couple of weeks, when campus news articles might reveal ED/EA admission stats. Apps are up at Brown, as indicated above. It is well-known that test-optional increases apps at highly competitive colleges. Increases are to be expected. I don't envy AOs this year, probably having to spend more time sorting through high schools and rigor comparisons. Ultimately, GPAs are truly not comparable, as there is no real standardization. Keep in mind the caveat, that apps being up is only likely be the case top colleges, top meaning top 50-100 or so. There was that earlier WSJ news article saying that Common App applications were down across the board.[/quote]
