[quote=Anonymous]After re-reading the OP's question, it sounds like she/he is asking why the acceptance rates are lower, which is true This just means that the yield will be lower, mathematically its all going to wash out If you assume that the top 100 colleges have 2,500 students per class each (no idea if this is the correct number but just using it for illustrative purposes) that is 250,000 kids that will be attending (not only be accepted) a top 100 college There are about 3.75 million high school students per each in the US, about 40% go to college so that is 1.5 million college students per year So on average, irregardless of acceptance rates, 16.7% of high school students will be going to a top 100 college [/quote]
