How does the admissions process work?

<p>The regional rep who visited my school told me there were TWO readers, including the regional rep. I’m presuming that then they choose their favorite and present to the committee.</p>

<p>I’m going off by memory here, but I think for the EA pool last year, roughly 800 people were rejected in the EA round. Since there are (I’m estimating here) about 20 or so regional reps, I’m guessing they only didn’t take about 40 applications to the committee, since to be deferred, you would need to be presented to the committee first. Thoughts?</p>
