Pretty simple question here. Currently applying to college and am wondering if odds will increase when applying to more reaches. I have heard varying answers on this, as each college is an independent event. However, since each college looks at apps differently, do you think odds increase linearly as number of applications increase? Could someone explain the math behind this? Appreciate any insight, thank you!
