<p>I agree that those REAs are popular, but I’m just talking strictly Yale and Stanford. A lot of people who consider Yale (for some odd reason) seem to also consider Stanford. Quiet a few people end up having to make a decision between the two. I don’t know why. And out of those people most go for Yale because they have a higher deferral rate. Most of my friends who weren’t consider either of the two did go for schools like Notre Dame and Georgetown.
Another bit… Stanford isn’t an Ivy… just saying.</p>
