<p>Any info from 4 years ago is useless this year. Much has changed with some schools no longer offering ED/EA and the economy. Wait lists are much longer at many schools this year than in the past.</p>

457

<p>can mods close this thread so people stop thinking the information is valid today, and that the OP is active? </p>

<p>If its closed, it is still available for reference, but it isn’t bombarded with posts asking for information when the OP is no longer active…</p>
