[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who kids who are credible Ivy applicants, there are no targets. There are just "reaches for all" and then straight to likelies. You might think that a WashU or an Emory would slot it, but they don't--they're reaches for all (where "all" means all).[/quote] I agree it's hard for eligible Ivy candidates to have confident targets. At our school, only kids with GPA lower than 3.8 (so below top 20% rank) apply to Emory ED (I can see from Naviance), and among those admitted during RD, matriculation is 50% or lower in the past 5 years. Emory knows they have low yield from our top kids, so why would they accept a top kid during RD? [/quote]
