It’s too bad your version doesn’t show application type (ED/EA/RD). That makes it a little easier to pick out some athletes/institutional priorities. Your counselor can see that data.
When we met with the school counselor, we asked, “what can you see for applicants to the business school (looking at large universities)”, and she was able to see a different pattern than one that just showed everybody. For example, at our state flagship, it looks like tons of people get in, but then some of the highest score/gpa kids are rejected. Oten they are CS, which has an admit rate of 4%.
Some highly rejectives also admit by major or school. Getting in to either the business program or the film program at NYU, for example, is very tough, but the scatterplots for NYU’s ideal candidates will likely look very different. I grew up in NY, and back in the day a lot of kids applied into Cornell through the Ag program. So not only do we not know the back story (beyond grades and tests) for the applicant, we don’t know exactly where the student is slotted at the school on arrival. (This does not apply to most LACs, of course.)
