[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Confused how this is a bad thing. HYP are praised for this while Chicago is criticized? Make it make sense.[/quote]

My sense is that this board really doesn't like the gamesmanship Chicago engages in.

[b]Chicago is a top 10 school[/b] that behaves like its Northeastern.[/quote] 
It’s not top 10. No top schools would manipulate the admissions game that much. It screams lack of confidence.[/quote]

[b]It’s our resident Chicago troll again[/b]! I hadn’t seen you in a while so I was worried.

ED rounds don’t signal a lack of confidence. UChicago in 2016 had the same acceptance rate as Northwestern in 2026 with only EA and RD. I don’t mean to tear Northwestern down or anything, but it’s the truth. ED is a strategy, not a sign of “weakness.” But I figure you’re just mad because Emory has never cracked the top 10 or 20.[/quote]
It was actually my first time commenting on Chicago. If that’s makes me a troll so be it.
One ED round probably doesn’t signal lack of confidence, but three rounds certain do. And it’s manipulation for sure. Again, Chicago is for tier 4-5 students. Therefore, it’s not a top 20 school.[/quote]

Miserable middle class strivers rage at things they can’t afford and can’t access. Your kids never went to private schools and don’t go to top 10 universities, as evidenced by your sour comments.[/quote]
