[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yield protection = how people convince themselves their kid was too good for that selective school when they actually got the expected, most common outcome.[/quote] +1000 It’s a face-saving expression for a lot of parents who deluded themselves into thinking their kid was better than they actually were.[/quote] How do you explain it when a kid is rejected to somewhere like Holy Cross and admitted into 3 ivies: Yale, Cornell and Brown?[/quote] The explanation is that in that year, Holy Cross had different priorities in building its class than those Ivies. [b]Or they blew off demonstrating interest. [/b]Or they whiffed the interview. [/quote] DI = Yield protection[/quote]
