Official Yale 2015 SCEA Pledge Thread

That’s why the “” was there.
But when you examine it more carefully, it’s not just self-selection. CC can actually help you improve your chances. I, as an international student, was ignorant of many aspects of the US university admissions process until I randomly bumped into this site a few months ago. You guys significantly helped me with improving my SATs, essays, common app, and putting it all together into a decent application. Now I’m scared to imagine my application without CC.
For US students, that kind of help is less useful. But, CC can also act as a big motivation booster. Reading all these decision threads where people with decent but unimpressive stats get rejected makes you push for that 2400, 4.0, IMO, national debate awards and everything else that will help you get in. I wish I knew about the site when I was a HS freshman, I would definitely work harder and be a much better candidate.

Sorry, your point wasn’t as clearly stated in your previous post as it was here, but I get what you mean now. You’re absolutely right; I could probably echo all of those sentiments. Best of luck to you!

Based on last years numbers, we have about 1% of the SCEA pool in this thread already

That is scary.

Why are we so many? already 1% of last year’s applicant number wow…

Why can’t more people apply to Stanford REA instead of Yale SCEA? Stanford is a wonderful institution! :)

Using the ~15% SCEA acceptance rate for last year, only 8 of us 53 will be accepted. Assuming that 2 spots go to Jersey13 and Silverturtle, that leaves 6 for us remaining 51. /Pessimism

nne718 · November 6, 2010, 9:27pm

^ The CC acceptance rate was higher than that

I say 24%. I somehow think we will fare better than last year.

Not saying i have any chance, but overall I think we will.

One of the main reasons this percentage is so high is because although we all did pledge now, those deferred/rejected tend not to come back and report their decisions. Most of the accepted students will.
