Yale International Admission Stats

<p>Anyone knows of international admit rates for the Yale class of '08? Thanks=)</p>

<p>8 or 9% ish?</p>

<p>WAIT i take that back! that's the percentage of internationals of the class of 08. sorry :(</p>

<p>heh ok - so no one has any idea about Yale's international acceptances rates?</p>

<p><em>bump</em>=)</p>

<p>8 out of 32 Chinese students got admitted last year, which is 25% for Chinese from Mainland. A high percentage!!!!!</p>

<p>only 32 chinese applicants last year? wonderful</p>

<p>32 pure Chinese, not the ones live in US for several years.
32 submitted TOELF score, Yale doesn't require their SAT score, lucky them, not me.</p>

<p>TOELF is a joke compared to the SAT 1 verbal.. i tired hard to make mistakes on the TOELF and i rarely do.. but on the sat 1, i tried my ass off to get perfect, i still did horrible.</p>

<p>A perfect TOELF score= 500 on SAT I verbal.</p>

<p>really?</p>

<p>perfect TOEFL= 500 verbal ? Is that what you made up or is that something that admission office uses?</p>

<p>Fallinwater0328,</p>

<p>i agree.. toefl is seriously a joke compared to the sat 1 verbal... anyone who can score over 500 on sat 1 verbal can ace the damn thing</p>

<p>I don't agree . . . I found the listening section of the TOEFL rather hard. Especially the long conversations/lectures. When I sat for the TOEFL, I got some history lecture from which, when it came to the questions, I just couldn't remember a single word. So those 5 questions or so were pure guesswork for me. The listening section is more a memory test than one of comprehension, if you ask me!</p>

<p>Of course, the grammar and comprehension sections are a breeze.</p>

<p>Is that the TOEFL or the TOELF? Why is everyone calling it TOELF? a new test i missed? <em>cries</em></p>

<p>Wow... why did everyone here take toefl?! I thought if you get a decent SAT verbal score it'll be waived?</p>

<p>it's TOEFL alright. Test Of English as a Foreign Language. The TOEFL's changing too along with the SAT.</p>

<p>Yeah it is waived-I dont think u need to take it if u get above a 700</p>

<p>i'd send it because i got a 295! <em>flashes peace sign</em></p>

<p>I had to take it because Wes and several other schools required it.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I only got 277. =(</p>

<p>And...<em>drum roll</em> i have 300! so naturally i sent it in even though my verbal score waives my toefl requirement at most colleges.</p>

<p>well naturally TOEFL is going to be easier for those of us living in the US where English is everywhere. I didn't take TOEFL but if I was living in China, that's probably the test I'd be stressing over rather than the SATs.</p>
