你带杯子了吗

所以啊，学校WL还是ding，所用的逻辑都不是我们可以猜得到了

被它ding了也不能说自己多差，mm表哭了，看着伤心

如果按照刚才各几位的逻辑，我也木表现出对w的不忠诚阿，

有关fit，实在就很难界定了，我觉得很fit，学校怎么觉得我就知不道

anyway,谢谢mm，

p.s. nnii是嘛意思啊？

怎么这么说？！我就认识几个极优秀的被ding掉了~~ 被wharton ding了一样还是很优秀！巴菲特还被wharton ding掉呢！·！！

虽然我并非极优秀（大概你也不认识偶），不过也感到极安慰。

i speculate because many in round 1 declined Wharton to HBS or Stanford(in the China pool), Wharton figured out this way to test applicants' loyalty. Those hv other choices, will choose to remove from waitlist...thus their yield rate can be protected.

Remember to discuss this topic with you that W is competing intensively with H&S. According to such assumption and these W/L are capable to get other offers, i try to explain in following way:

Applicants are likely overlapped within this small pool. For Chinese, it is special when somebody got H/W/S, he/she will probably go H/S, perhaps especially R1 for this year. The critical issue is that the trend is too obvious to be caught.

If I were Adcom of W facing Chinese applicants, I would take "strategy" like this time. In May, if the student is still available for W, it means that W could handle everything rather than vice versa: let he or she in or refuse, in no case applicants will drop W for H/S. Even the student is offered by H/S, W would not lose, because he definitely would not go W.

Summary the results, after such “Strategy” is taken:

1. W have choice to offer a guy who can not drop

2. H/S offer a guy who is waitlisted by W--- W has superior criterion to H/S. Thus, W is better than H/S

Before that::

A guy drop offer by W for H/S---S and H are better than W in Chinese View

In addition, H/S can be replaced by any other school that competes with W

Personal assumptions, waiting for correction!

W的WL就是POLITE DING了

这个还有什么好争的

一个800个人的CLASS,录取超过1100个人, 不就很能说明问题吗

大家还是先去考虑其他的SCHOOL吧, W的WL就暂时放一边好了

这个，似乎不是w adcom的人谁也不qualified说得这么绝对吧，去年800人给了1100个offer不代表今年也是一样的情况啊，去年r2哪里有这么多wl，这么少offer呢？

如果不是100%sure,何必要说这样的观点伤害人家的感情呢

如果今年第一轮W的yield rate已经很低了的话，R2的行为可以理解了。不是说已经有8+8=16拿到H、S的offer了么？那些人里面有多少拿了W的offer？谁知道的介绍一下，呵呵

我也是WL，alumni interview的

overseafly

有道理!

请教大家,以前W有这样狂发WL的先例么? 好象没听说过类似的案例吧?

再有,是不是R1的WL大多已经被居了,除了此贴中超牛且超"LUCKY"的V兄弟?

另外,照卓如兄弟的分析,那W岂不是也在冒险丢掉一些个极有可能被H,S录取的优秀人才? 就为了最后的录取率面子,而放弃和H S一争,是不是不太符合W这样牛校的风格?

如果我问的不对,请大家别取笑也被骂,大家一起讨论，好么? 毕竟W放了这么多WL,是一件比较奇怪的事.

mm不要着急

个人都有个人的观点啦。其实wl的人不要太寄希望，也可以避免再次失望嘛。。。。

大家在讨论的是为什么W要POLITE DING(按你的说法)这么多人今年!

W/L上的人都很明白希望很小.拿到W/L,第一件事就是,MD,我要接受哪个哪个学校的OFFER了,我要准备交DEPOSIT了.

800个人发1100的OFFER并不能说明W不从WAITLIST上录人.如果W不WAITLIST这么多人,也许他家发的YIELD RATE比现在更低.

我相信今年从W/L上下来的人会比去年多.

DING 就直接DING了,没有原因,搞什么POLITE DING. 吃饱了撑的吗! W家需要给申请人面子吗,先POLITE DING 你一下,再真的DING 你一下.

凡事无绝对,凡事一定有原因，这是我相信的,哈哈

俺觉得,W/L越多人,说明学校对形势越没把握,
