[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is because of TO. Targets are becoming reach schools for top students also, so they are playing the odds - you need to apply to a lot more for the hopes of getting into one. Get rid of TO, and the numbers will come back down to normal [/quote] “Get rid of TO” is also a collective action problem, except that it’s the schools who have to coordinate their actions (and it’s illegal for them to do so).[/quote] According to the Common App 2022 report high volume/SAT >1400 (ACT equiv) are "eight times as likely to be applicants who selectively include test scores depending on where they are applying." High-stats students are being strategic about TO but this is also driving up the 50% percentile SAT scores at T30 schools.[/quote]
