49,000 applications (SSEN, ED1, EA, ED2, RD)
98% top 10% of their class
21,000 applied EA/ED1
1000 admitted EA/ED1
5% admit rate in EA/ED1
Drumroll please…
18% admit rate in ED1
And how do these numbers stop "Chicago hate"?
Trolls inflate the ED acceptance rate above 20% or 30% to try to take a jab at the school.

Congrats!
Help me out, how do you get 18% from these numbers? There seems a missing link for the calculation.
Could you map out how you derive 18% from those numbers?
Thanks!
18% was not my independent calculation, so I’m unsure. Sorry!
