[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The range is so wide, it's completely useless. The number of apps helps the schools playing US News ranking game. [/quote] No admission rate counts 0% for USN&WR ranking.[/quote] Plenty of other rankings do include admission rate. [/quote] Even if they aren't part of rankings, lots of people do think acceptance rate is a meaningful way to judge a school. I see plenty of them posting that opinion on DCUM (e.g. putting down a school that has a 70%+ acceptance rate). I think it's mainly a measure of marketing power and has little to nothing to do with education. [/quote]
