[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People keep saying that TO made admission much harder. If that's the case for some students, it must be much easier for other students. Colleges still need to fill the same amount of spots. It's always hard to get in the top ones, but it's questionable now is much harder than before. [/quote] Math must not be your thing. Applications are going up at each school 15 to 20 percent per year for the past two years. That means there are way more students competing for the same number of spots. [/quote] Your first sentence is totally unnecessary and offers no relevant information to the topic. People are applying more, thus the lower acceptance rate at a particular school. But statistically speaking, since people are applying more, the chance to get in ONE of the schools of similar level should be similar as before. Unless students who had little chance in the past have much better chance now. [/quote]
