<p>spertoso: Firstly you’re to be congratulated on the success you’ve achieved. And you can take/ignore any advice a random stranger like me gives. I happen to be an alum and have done interviewing and recruiting for 22 years for Yale. However, please read quickly through this thread
<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-university/1114274-official-yale-class-2015-rd-results-thread.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-university/1114274-official-yale-class-2015-rd-results-thread.html</a></p>
<p>This a sampling of accepts and rejects for this year’s incoming Freshman class. And these applicants are accepted at roughly THREE TIMES MORE than transfer applicants – i.e. about 2/3 of the few “accepts” in this list would be transfer rejects.</p>
<p>If you see yourself as a lover of learning and analytical thinking and creativity, then you should also be able to examine a situation and gain direction on which path to choose. As I said before, transfer accept rates are about 2%. The kids on the thread I cited have about a 7% chance of being admitted. </p>
<p>While I don’t doubt you have success in your path, I’m afraid your view of being admitted to Yale is clothed in fantasy more than on facts. Luck? Sure – anyone who gets in is “lucky”. But to rely on a miracle – makes one scratch the head.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you in your endeavors.</p>
