<p>oops misinterpreted what Dean J said, thanks teamam</p>
<p>my paranoia got the best of me</p>
<p>it doesnt seem like that much of a change…</p>
<p>I don’t think the blog meant an increase of 21,000 apps…just a total of 21,000 apps. That means there is an increase of 2,461 apps.</p>
<p>Dean J meant that the total number of applications is up over 21,000, not that there has been a 21,000 increase in that number.</p>
<p>2500 more applicants means about 5% lower acceptance rate, not 50% lol</p>
