<p>This came out today. What do you think it means for those of us who applied early?</p>
<p>[Early</a> Decision numbers increase by 22 applicants | The Johns Hopkins News-Letter](<a href=“http://www.jhunewsletter.com/2012/11/15/early-decision-numbers-increase-by-22-applicants-32911/]Early”>Early Decision numbers increase by 22 applicants - The Johns Hopkins News-Letter)</p>
<p>Wow, just 22 applicants?</p>
<p>It means your chances this year will be about the same as they would have been if you applied last year.</p>
<p>An increase doesn’t necessarily mean chances are the same if the quality of the applicant has increased. Hopkins may choose to admit a higher percentage of ED applicants which would make it even more competitive for the Regular Decision candidates. </p>
<p>Brown’s ED applicants increased 1%; Dartmouth’s decreased 12.5% according to online news sources.</p>
<p>Does this mean that these schools have already decided all of the applicants that will be admitted???</p>
<p>which of the*</p>
<p>Oh wait, hahaha, nevermind</p>
<p>“GetExcited” haha what an apt name</p>
