<p>on the flip side, I noticed on the board the other day several schools selectivity had gone up, accepted more to get their class size put together. the most dramatic went from 41% to 60% (I wonder if that ones an error as most of the others were a 3 - 5% change). Seems like kids applying to many, many schools. My D applied to seven, but she knows many that applied to upwards of a dozen.</p>
