[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This!^. Please people, rank them according to your true preferred picks. There's no priority given for ranking a school higher than another.[/quote] NP this is totally confusing to me. If no priority is given for ranking one school higher than another, why does it matter what order you rank them in at all? Also what is the alternative to ranking them according to your true preferred picks? How does anything anyone's said tell people to do anything else?[/quote] Let's say you pick six schools in the lottery. When it comes to be your turn, you only get into one of them. Which one will that be? The one you ranked highest of the five available. Ranking it higher doesn't make it more likely to get in, that's determined by the number of people with either higher preference or lower lottery numbers and the number of spots.[/quote]
