[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Funny...the % of Black kids at any PWI is less than 10%. Instead of doing whatever it takes for their kid to be in the other 90%, folks want to snipe at the Black kids. In a class of 1000 freshmen, less than 100 will be Black - and few of those will be recruited athletes. So let's say that 65 of those kids are academic admits. You guys have your panties in a bunch over 65/1000 kids. Think about that! [/quote] Actually, about 2,200 offers are made per school for top schools although incoming class sizes vary somewhat and the yield rates vary as well. 10% of 2,200 is 220 per school. Remember, balck applicant doesn't just get one acceptance from top schools but multiple acceptances. Multiply 220 for top 20 schools and you get 4,400 acceptances. Subtract about 600 for recruited athletes and you have [b]3,800 acceptances [/b]for the top 20 schools. [/quote]
