[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yield protection is real though for 1550+ Kids[/quote] I see what you are saying. But, if they showed 0 interest (for the schools that track that, which if you think they are so likely, they probably do) and they did not do optional essays and other similar things-- can we call it yield protection? Yes, in the sense that the school probably does not think the kid is coming. But the school also maybe thinks the kid does not want to go there. That can also be true. And colleges certainly can and should pick the kids that are really into them. That's not quite, or only, yield protection. That's building a class that wants to be there. When a parent laments that a kid was rejected, we may "know" their scores, ECs, etc. are fantastic--- but we do not know the quality of the application itself.[/quote]
