<p>I agree with MM. Efforts to raise yield are implemented entirely post-admission (phone calls, campus preview weekend). They don’t include not admitting people who applied to other schools.</p>
<p>Check out the acceptance rate vs. SAT score given in [url=<a href=“https://www.fafsa.com/downloads/Research_Reports/college_preferences.pdf]this”>https://www.fafsa.com/downloads/Research_Reports/college_preferences.pdf]this</a> pdf<a href=“page%209”>/url</a> – the probability of an MIT applicant’s admission rises smoothly given higher and higher SAT scores, in contrast to Princeton’s admissions, where students around the 93rd percentile are admitted at a higher rate than those around the 98th percentile. The conclusion the authors of the study draw is that Princeton is practicting selective admissions (rejecting those they deem likely to reject them), while MIT is not.</p>
