<p>Sorry, I guess you are not as consistent as I thought.</p>
<p>Everyone seems concerned about the increasing numbers of applications. I am not sure I see the problem. There are way too many kids and parents who cannot see beyond the elite, name brand schools. There are a lot of other good choices. Maybe the low acceptance rates will be a good thing and force more attention on finding college choices that fit the individual. There are also a lot of other choices beyond a few colleges that have received attention as hidden gems or colleges that changes lives.</p>
