[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Op. I realized my question wasn't clear - sorry. What I meant is if a top student follows CC advice to go for a T10 during SCEA, if she doesn't get in and applies more broadly during RD, what are the change that this applicant would get shutout by other T30 colleges due to yield management? The ones she would apply in RD include schools like Swarthmore, Harvey Mudd, Rice, Pitt, GA Tech, Brown, Lehigh. This is a science major. The ones she really wants would be HM and Brown. Thx[/quote]

Very high chances of being shut out.

It is really the tippy top kids (both academics and EC's) who have a strong shot at HYPSM (30-50% chance) who can afford to SCEA to HYPSM.

For everyone else, there is a strong chance of being shut out in RD from T20.

No chance this kid is shutout from a list that includes Pitt and Lehigh.  The doom and gloom on this board is ridiculous.[/quote]

Agree
Lehigh and Pitt likely to work in RD of competitive for T10. No worries about pure shutout
