<p>VERY few schools do NOT use a waitlist. Your point? Columbia’s yield is usually 60%. So…please…just…don’t. And Chicago’s may WELL approach 60% this year. Why is that a problem for you? You have no ties to this school and yet you post relentlessly and relentlessly negatively about Chicago, while tub-thumping relentlessly for Duke, as is demonstrated not just by your posts here, but by your ungodly large number of posts on that forum. </p>
<p>FYI. Chicago’s yield last year was 55%. Duke’s yield, as usual, was well UNDER 50%. So don’t delude yourself into believing that Duke does not use a wait list. What is the old adage about people in glass houses?</p>
