<p>^Maybe a lot of potential applicants thought that a lot of people will apply this year (because a lot of people applied last year because of the recession), but in reality, too many people thought that so less people applied? It’s kind of hard to twist your mind into this, but it does make sense lol </p>
<p>After all, it was big news how the recession = increase of applicants.</p>
<p>I wonder how the RD numbers will be like this year…</p>
<p>Yeah, I completely see what you mean.</p>
<p>I think the RD numbers will be normal this year, though.
I also think the number of ED applicants will stay the same this year [At least I hope so]. If it’s the same as last year, it could be around 43%!</p>
<p>I like the odds of 43%!! </p>
<p>I’m not so certain RD will stay the same this year, though. I think a lot of people might have held off applying ED in order to compare FA from various schools, in addition to reverse effects from last year o_O</p>
<p>Yup lol A lot of people will realize that not too many people applied ED, so they apply RD? lol </p>
<p>What do you mean you think the number of ED applicants will stay the same? like the number accepted? I thought someone else said there weren’t as many people who applied ED this year.</p>
<p>Yeah, number accepted.</p>
<p>Word on the street is the number of ED applicants has dropped from 3500 to 3000. That’s just hearsay, but if it’s true, we’re in good shape. Like bioblade, I’d imagine they’d still want to accept around the same amount of applicants despite the drop in applications.</p>
