Yes! Good point. I was referring to high school graduates and how many schools they applied to for their undergrad, but I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. And, Dominic, I think you've got a good point. Admissions is incredibly cut-throat these days, at least from my experience. An evident increase in selectivity is particularly apparent in public schools. I know in NY, for example, the SUNY system is turning away thousands or students that, less than a decade ago, would have been accepted without question.
