<p>OK, the difference is I was subtracting 2500 from 11,000 (the number I remembered from last year while apparently the number was about 11,400) and the other difference is # accepted is closer to 2,000 less rather than 2,500 IF the NY Times got the numbers right. Not that it really matters as long as Tulane gets the class size it wants along with the quality. The latter seems to be a near certainty, hopefully the class won’t be too big again. We will see.</p>
