[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no convincing proof that any school does yield protection but DCUM parents cling to this “explanation” for their kid getting rejected.[/quote] Well, if you look in SCOIR scattergrams for some colleges (ie U Miami) where the top quadrant kids are all deferred/waitlisted and those with lower stats are accepted, it feels a lot like yield protection.[/quote] You can do the same thing with the Harvard-Westlake unhooked students data. There are many schools where the kids with medium-high GPAs are admitted at a higher rate than the kids with higher GPAs. This may be mostly an artifact of ED, but that’s why ED is a form of yield protection. [/quote]
