[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Northeastern and Case Western are the worst with their yield management. [/quote] Mine was accepted at Duke, Northwestern, and Michigan -- waitlisted at Case and BU. (not complaining! but yield optimization shouldn't exist, it really just adds to the confusion and chaos) [/quote] But some students are accepted to these schools at the same time, and many of those admitted are highly qualified as well. Those who weren’t admitted might think it’s due to yield protection, but it could also simply be that schools look at different factors or that your child is in a different applicant pool. When the competition is high, it’s hard to predict. If you weren’t admitted to a school with a 50–70% acceptance rate, it might seem somewhat unexpected. [/quote]
