Ep. 220 | Admissions results, explained

Uncategorized Apr 02, 2024

In this week's podcast, I dive into this year's crazy admissions results. Take a look at the admit rates of a sampling of popular colleges:

  • Amherst 9%
  • Bowdoin 7%
  • Brown 5%
  • Colby 6%
  • Columbia 4%
  • Dartmouth 5%
  • and the list goes on...

What exactly is going on here?

Single-digit acceptance rates as far as the eyes can see.

I walk through an example of how an unhooked student has to compete against 10,000 similarly-credentialed students for just 300 spots at a popular college.
