[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Greater transparency, i.e. what is the 50th/ 75th% SAT/ GPA of the non athlete admittees? What percent of the ED admits are legacy, what percent are recruited athletes how many are "dean's interest," i.e donors? It would be useful to know how many spots at the T20 privates are really "available" for unhooked applicants? But in the end that info won't change that there are only a few spots. That scarcity is what makes this all so fraught and I don't see how any legislation can fix that[/quote] You can guess most of this accurately with a bit of brain usage. If the school has X freshman athletes on average, they are all mostly getting in ED. If it's a Duke, Harvard, Northwestern etc with tons of rich legacy famous alumni, there will be a good percentage of ED going to those families. ED in reality is only about 1/2 the published numbers. It is what it is. [/quote]
