<p>In the Early Action pool, Yale accepted a total of 6 kids from my school! Considering how many they accept in total, this seems like a rather large number. In addition, they deferred 3 kids including me. Does the fact that they accepted so many people in the SCEA pool from our school hurt my chances of getting in, as I have been deferred to RD?</p>
<p>Well, how many people are in your grade, and how many people applied to Yale? If there are 2000 kids in your grade, and 60 applied to Yale, then the acceptances and deferrals aren’t extremely high. If there are, however, 20 kids in your grade, and 10 applied to Yale, then the numbers are impressive.</p>
