<p>i was wondering how accurate (not sure thats the right word) EE is. does everyone who gets a likely get in? it seems like a good idea, assuming it works i guess.</p>
<p>did they have this last year? if so i'd be interested to know if anyone got a likely and then was denied (or an unlikely then admitted)</p>
<p>I think that "Likely's" don't get admitted only if there are major circumstances like academic fraud in high school that surface. If you get an "Unlikely," give it up. For my D's year, the number was zero. "Possibles" were something like one in six...though my memory is shakey on that one.</p>
<p>Yeah, February is much better than April. Last year, knowing I was a "likely" at Wellesley eased much of my stress with the long wait. If you're a "likely," you're pretty much in--just don't rock the boat.</p>
