[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was surprised at the different rates some schools moved - did not really have to do with their popularity!

SWS moved 30 spots
ITS moved 45 spots
Peabody moved 32 spots
TR - 4th moved 30 spots
Ludlow Taylor moved 20 spots

On the other hand, some schools moved very little!

Van Ness moved FIVE spots only!
Brent moved 16
Lee moved 14

Of course none of this was enough to actually get us in personally, but  I think this shows there are decent chances out there. [/quote]

Note:  those school's lists didn't move that many spots YOUR list did.  ie, people removed themselves from lists, etc.[/quote]

^^ Exactly. It doesn't show that there are decent chances.

For K -- by August 20

SWS -  11 offers to the WL
ITS - 13 offers to WL 
Peabody - 26
TR 4th - 12 
Ludlow Taylor - 8

But doesn't the velocity of movement say something about my chances as well?  Because I can't think of why people would be removing themselves from the ITS waitlist faster than the TRY waitlist. It seems like ITS just burned through its waitlist faster (including people getting off of it) compared to TRY, for example. [/quote]
