[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe in forced limits but I do think there are some bad consequences to writing unlimited applications. It really fuels the frenzy and anxiety as each college gets to boast "record number of applications" but really they're just 1 application out of 25 and not 1 out of 8. Students can only go to one school. So [b]given the shotgunning anxious students do, it really affects yield, so schools retaliate by doing multiple rounds of binding decisions. The end resut is more anxiety, frenzied decision making, and less power for students who get stressed into making early binding commitments when in an ideal world they'd get to make a decision after hearing all of the results of the applications they filed and paid for.[/b] I hate it all.[/quote] agree[/quote]
