Waitlisted & the Statistical Chances of Getting In

<p>Couldn’t find the CDS posted on their web site, but this article from 2007 indicates that they had such a good yield, they did not have to go to the Wait list that year.</p>

<p>^ Thanks! Bummer. I heard '09 was a poor year for yield, though… so maybe '10 will trend toward that. Fingers crossed.</p>
