[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FFS!! 1350 is not average!! It’s above average. DCUM-land can be very out of touch.[/quote] It's well below average for just about every school discussed on this board. [/quote] Which is [b]exactly[/b] the problem. Everyone is chasing the same name brand schools. Even if you have 4.0 UW and 1550 SAT/35 ACT, if your not hooked, I’d say your chances at a top 20 are still 1 in 3, or lower. It’s a terrible bet for most people, yet no one gives up the dream. Why? Social status is the primary reason.[/quote] Your chances for the next 30 are great with a 1550 and even then 1350 will be below average for OOS at most. [/quote] I’ll take your word for it, but how many are making UNC-CH and GATech and BU and the like their ED school? It sounds like people are really wanting a top 20 and treating the second 30 like safeties and relegating them to RD, and the schools react accordingly.[/quote]
