[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was deferred ED and accepted RD. Great grades, scores, EC. No hooks. [b]It is a complete lottery[/b] with so many applicants with similar profiles. Apply widely.[/quote] This. I have a friend who quit doing Harvard alumni interviewing because he met so many great kids that he recommended, but most got rejected simply because of the numbers. There are too many extremely qualified kids applying to the same very small group of schools. Because of this, the second tier schools (20-50) are filled with very high stats, great kids, so if your kid goes to one of these, he will have a large cohort of high achievers at his "second tier" school.
