<p>Ambi: I think the poing 2prepmom was trying to make is that given that the actual matriculation of FA/FP students and $$ awared for FA students at both schools is about the same, it’s hard for many of us to see what “need blind” yields in terms of actual results for FA students. Exeter admits that it is easier for an FP student to be admitted. That probably means that E. accepts more FP students than A. does, but that both accept roughly the same number of FA students. Acceptance and yield rates at both schools seem to bear that out. If anything, more FA students are probably applying to Andover, given its reputation as a need blind school, so it could well be more difficult to get in there.</p>
