Regional Statistics on Admitted Students in the Class of '14

<p>I think I’m gonna move to Montana. :D</p>

<p>Huh really? I know for sure that there are at least 3 people in Korea admitted to Yale, I think the actual total is 5.</p>

<p>^ Are you sure? There are only two people shown on Blue Marble as being admitted from South Korea, and both of them have published profiles. If others had been admitted but not set up profiles, there would be a notation at the bottom of the page. </p>

<p>For example, there are 14 students from the U.K. with profiles, and at the bottom of the page it says: “…and 13 other students who have not yet published profiles.” For Israel, there is one profile and the notation “… plus 1 other student who has not yet published a profile.” You get the gist. For South Korea, there are two profiles and no additional notation.</p>

<p>I’m sure. In Korea the majority of the study abroad programs are in specialized schools, and it’s a close-knit community among said schools. The admission records especially are well-known among anyone who is interested (and anyone applying would be).</p>

<p>We have one person from School A, one from School B, one from School C (a science school, EA), and two from School D (both are EA, one person has US citizenship but has been educated in Korea).</p>

<p>Hmm. Strange. Blue Marble shows only two admitted students from South Korea and mentions no profiles yet to be published. </p>

<p>Are all five going to Yale?</p>

<p>Ah well, we’re a small country. :wink: Capable of being ignored by Blue Marble, I guess?</p>

<p>I’m not sure where all five have decided to go, actually. Two are definitely going to Yale, one person was waitlisted at Harvard and was waiting for that decision (would go to Yale if not accepted), the other two got into both Harvard and Yale and are probably choosing Harvard (We’re an infinitely shallow bunch, I don’t think anyone has ever chosen Y over H, just because of the “name” factor…not that I think it’s a good thing).</p>

<p>That is just false. Students from an underrepresented state (I am from MS, for example) are admitted at higher rates because they are already self-selected. All of my admissions interviewers told me that Mississippi has a higher admit rate than any other state.</p>

<p>Wow i’m surprised Ohio is like 11th most represented. Yay midwest :D</p>

<p>huh… i thought PA numbers would be higher.</p>
