[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know people want to think this year is “very” different but it’s not. This is the same story every year. People want to blame COVID or No SATs.

But it’s not different.

Kids realize their likely schools were actually reaches every year, counselors act aghast every year. [/quote]

THANK YOU! Every year Emory is somehow the top 20 safety, just for their DC's to get rejected in late March. EVERY YEAR.[/quote]
NP.  Emory is never anyone's safety - that is a clear mistake that some people make, perhaps more prevalent among posters at DCUM than elsewhere on the internet.  Its acceptance rate has long been in reach-for-all territory.  Test optional policies and increased apps this particular year led to another drop in rate.

Acceptance rate for class of 2024, 18%

Acceptance rate for class of 2025, 13%

Well that is the point ... people pick the wrong likely.

Even UFLA, GA, Clemson and South Carolina are not somebody’s safety/likely.[/quote]
