<p>pianista, how many Yale applicants do you know who are confident about their chances?</p>

23

<p>Well not confident about their chances- but like... confident that they have a chance.. or like that their chances are in the right range, u know? </p>

<p>and i would say that RCfanatic and these two other kids i know have the right to be confident. :P
but otherwise... what i said above..</p>

24

<p>Yep, samples made from a self-selected group are usually very skewed.</p>

<p>While I am pretty certain it will be painful, perhaps this will be the first step on the road of rejection recovery :) For the sake of all CCer's I pledge, no matter what the decision, to report. Good Luck to everyone!</p>

<p>I don't think there's a ton of self-selection bias here. I wanted to start this a couple weeks before so there isn't the ridiculous amount of stress. I don't think that this thread is scaring anybody - is it really an inconvenience/embarrassment to put rejected next to your user name on a web site that's helped you understand the nuance of college admissions?</p>

36

<p>haha no- I was just arguing for argument's sake. I don't believe that posting a rejection/deferral post is really a big deal, but to some people it could be. Whenever there's a self-selecting group posing for a survey, there's going to be some bias, and I would guess that it would still be towards the better end because of the reasons I mentioned before.</p>
