[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“High stats” does not always equal rigorous course load across all five subjects.

People need to stop talking about “my high stats kid…..” because that never tells the whole story. [/quote]

I do happen to know rigorous course load kids who did quite well, at the top of their "DCUM approved" high school - that were not accepted to UVA.  Those same kids have outstanding ECs. It is not outrageous at all to think (know) that UVA practices yield protection.  UVA disregards those from the top of their class, in the name of diversity. It is no secret. [/quote]

But not in the ED round. [/quote]

You do not know that. It is yield protection. [/quote]

[b]Yield protection[/b] isn’t possible during ED. IT IS BINDING[/quote]

+1.  UVA doesn't engage in yield protection.  If you think it does, please provide citations. [/quote]

I don't have a dog in this fight, but does any college actually provide citations that they do this?[/quote]

Yes, they do. Google UVA yield. Or any other school and yield.  Yield stats are often used with alums when the college is asking for money from alums [/quote]

The UVA Mommas are fierce, but UVA definitely yield protects. I thought everyone knew this? [/quote]
OhFFS. You can’t yield protect early decision where the yield is, by definition, a perfect 100%. 
I thought UVA booster ladies could comprehend? [/quote]
