<p>Does anyone know what the acceptance rates have been for ID in the past few years?</p>

102

<p>2003 was 28%
2002 - 26%
2001 - 23%</p>

103

<p>And we're all hoping that upward trend continues...</p>

104

<p>Is it necessarily an "upward trend", or are the statistics becoming increasingly favorable because there are not as many people applying as the previous years?</p>

105

<p>I think you'd find that more and more people are liking Rice ID beacuse they get to hear early, but it does not conflict with ED or EASC policies. I know that's why I applied ID (although I'd have applied regular, even if ID didn't exist, and I hope the rest of us can say the same :)).</p>

<p>Joey</p>

106

<p>Yeah, I would have also applied regular if ID didn't exist.</p>

107

<p>I certainly would have applied if ID didn't exist...why would I spend $50 applying if I didn't like the school? I do, however, appreciate the fact that ID exists. How does it feel to know that within a week, our fates will be decided? When decisions are released, I think we should make a roster for each person to post stats/school/decision, so that future generations of CC people will have it as a resource...and for our own benefit.</p>

108

<p>Yeah i think we should do something like what the ED people did. Maybe even more elaborate.</p>

109

114

<p>Anticipation/Nervousness is growing exponentially for me as the minutes pass...</p>

115

if the admin office want to get things done by the end of the week they might send out the email on friday. ugh I hate this waiting :(</p>

116

<p>AHHHHH tomorrow.
I think I might go check the library's computers during school just because I'm paranoid that it'll become before I get home tomorrow (11-ish pm).</p>

117

<p>the suspense is killing me</p>
