<p>Dan-
I agree with your point of comparison. What’s frustrating to me is that admissions at every school emphasizes this concept of finding the right “fit” and then when you feel you do find what you think is “your fit” (I feel this about Tufts), you first get deferred then waitlisted. It seems very misleading for admissions to tell us to “find our fit” when all that really matters ultimately is what “fits” the admissions officers and what will suit their needs… Just an observation.</p>
