[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am talking about applicants who have the academic stats (1500+, 4.0+, high rigor) but didn't make the cut. Unhooked. What typically happens to them?[/quote]

At our school many ED2 to U Chicago, Hopkins if pre med or Tufts/Bowdoin/Wesleyan if they want more of a LAC.[/quote]

they aren't getting into Chicago or Hopkins for ED 2 if unhooked.  [b]If anything, these are harder than many ivies ED1.[/b][/quote]

This just isn’t true, since the admitted students are almost exclusively Ivy+ rejects.[/quote]

You're kind of dumb - ED2 at Hopkins and Chicago is far more selective than ED 1 at ivies.[/quote]

This might be true.  Hopkins and Chicago are unusual among top schools in having ED2.  Probably many strong kids apply ED2 there and it is a tough pool.

That said, the overall difficulty of getting into Hopkins or Chicago is similar to Cornell or Northwestern imo.[/quote]

Both actually harder for class of 2028:

Hopkins: 5.5% acceptance rate overall 
Chicago: 4.5% accepted
Cornell: 8.4%

Enrolled Test scores:

Hopkins:1530 - 1570
Chicago: 1510 - 1560
Cornell: 1480 - 1550
Chicago: [/quote]

Re SAT scores, aren't all those schools test optional in those stats?[/quote]
