[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An analysis of the SFFA v Harvard data indicates that an applicant to Harvard who had a 1570+ SAT had a 15% (Asian) to 25% (non-hispanic white) chance of admission. Post SFFA Asians and Whites have a 25%-30% chance. That's how hard it is to get a 1570, even superscored.[/quote] Those percent chances don’t seem as high as I’d expect for a 1570. That said, it appears that places like Caltech, UPenn, and John’s Hopkins get (attract) the really high scorers. [/quote] They are applying to multiple T20s, not just Harvard. It's the accumulated probablity over multiple schools that counts. A harvard reject may get admitted to several other T20s. Even for Harvard, the chance increased from 3-4% to 15-25%. [/quote]
