[quote=Anonymous]Stop focusing on the same 40 overhyped schools and the "demographic cliff" is already here ... It's easier to get in college already than it was 10 years ago for all schools outside the usual 40-50 suspects. Also, people are anxiety-applying to 15-20 schools now when 15 years ago they applied to 5-10. And some of those applications are unserious and they won't/don't go. Even if you get into 10 schools you like, a student can only attend 1 college. The other acceptances are just given back up to the wider pool. So it's not like the overall pool is getting larger at the same rate as number of applications to each school is increasing. They're just applying to more schools each, to have more choice or because they're scared.[/quote]
