[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard the RD acceptance rate was 6.7% this year. Is that true?[/quote] No, that was just someone on CC who divided number of applications by number of seats without factoring in yield. [/quote] Acceptance rate is probably a bit under last year's rate of 15% as BC's rate's been trending lower each year like most schools. But to your point, isn't that how acceptance rate is calculated? Without accounting for yield? [/quote] NP. No, PP is just saying that someone else divided # of seats by # of apps, not # of acceptances by # of apps. Acceptance rate is calculated by dividing # of acceptances by # of apps. That someone else was failing to recognize that all colleges admit more than the # of seats to account for the fact that yield is not 100%.[/quote]
