If a school is a target, I would think your kid's stats are no higher than the 75th percentile for the school.  So why would yield protection come into play? [/quote]

I am referring to schools that ranks 40-50 like northeastern and case western for very high stats kids with SAT 1550+, most rigorous with 10+ AP [/quote]

That is my DC. Sitting on deferrals from both those schools with those stats. Sigh.[/quote]

Just curious with respect to Case (I don't have experience with Northeastern)...did you visit the school?  Did your kid sign up for the emails and actually open them?  Did your kid participate in the various virtual sessions?  Since Case has no supplemental essays, did your kid send an email to admissions essentially writing 250 words on "why I want to attend Case?"

I hate to say it, but there are all these hoops that you can go through to up your chances at a place like Case.  They absolutely care about demonstrated interest.[/quote]
