[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are TONS of kids who apply to Ivies as a "what if." Even if they only toss transcripts with tons of Bs and Cs and don't even look at scores, that likely eliminates a swath of applicants.[/quote] AOs say that 60-80% of applicants are qualified.[/quote] I simply don't believe that -- all the top schools say it to an extent, but it feels like a throwaway line.[/quote] If the Yale admissions officers are to be believed, they strongly implied that 20,000 applications out of 57,000 applications were not competitive at the very first glance. These were wholly deficient in GPA, rigor, English language proficiency, scores, etc. I would venture to say that on a second, longer culling, you can easily remove half of the ones remaining.[/quote]
