<p>Yunsang - tell us in your opinion, even rough estimate,
of the 250 athletes that got in, how many got in ed?
of the 750 legacy that got in, how many got in ed?
1100 total got in ed
you tell us about how many of the approximately 1100, using estimates or whatever, got in ED.
yes, about 750 is an assumption. probably higher.
statistical analysis and operations research do involve assumptions which do not defeat the reliability of the study.
if 75% of the ed admits were athletic or legacy, then the unhooked that got in ed (even in a weaker pool) were super stellar applicants who had a shot at many, even all of the top schools.
Give us a reason why you think this analysis, with the assumption, is not accurate.
Look at Wuchu’s post a few above this.</p>
