"And our Admissions Office reports that by the October 25th deadline, the number of First Round applications for positions in the Class of 2009 increased by an astonishing 48% from last year. While it is still too soon to tell whether this increase in interest in the SOM MBA program will persist through the remaining two application rounds, it is a very encouraging signal." - Dean Podolny
Impossible. Yale SOM is committed to its small size, which has a lot of special benefits as well as challenges. Tuck, Stanford Bschool and Yale Law School are all very small but they're undisputably among the greatest.
根據之前大家的資訊與說法 MBA 2009 預計招收190-200人 扣掉去年50個defered,有45個同意今年入學 預估今年招收人數大約150人左右
previous numbers of applicants:2000 estimated growth rate of numbers of applicants for MBA09: 50% (參考首輪成長率48%) estimated numbers of applicants for MBA09: 3000 estimated yield rate for MBA09:60% (參考cheeyong在2006-11-3 5:21:00的发言: Last year, SOM's accpetance rate is 28%, but the yield is only 37%, a very disappointing figure. This year's yield has rebound to around 61%)
若要達到yield rate 60% 1.在只計算今年的150個入學者的情況下,今年大概要送出250個admission(150/0.6=250) 2.在合計去年50個deferred的情況下,則今年大概要送出290個admission(200/0.6=333,大約是330個,330-50=280) estimated acceptance rate this year:8%~10%(250/3000=8.33% or 280/3000=9.33%)
當然上述的錄取率是建立在整體申請人數成長50%的條件下 如果成長幅度沒那麼大呢?假設今年申請人數為2500人好了, estimated acceptance rate this year:10%~12% (250/2500=10% or 280/2500=11.2%)
不然再假設申請人數還是2000人,第一輪的暴增只是虛晃的假象 estimated acceptance rate this year:12%~15%(250/2000=12.5% or 280/2000=14%)
那如果yield rate沒那麼高呢? 我想TOP B-chool都希望high yield rate吧?! 若是以yield rate of TOP 10 大約50%推算 綜合各種最有利的條件,錄取率大概是17.5%
