<p>^Just ran through the thread myself. These applicants were the only ones I couldn’t comprehend the wait-list verdict.</p>
<p>
If the national awards on this one are good enough, and this user is telling the truth, this looks like Tufts Syndrome.</p>
<p>Then there was a pair of applicants wait-listed with 2200+ SATS:

<p>These latter two can’t be proven as “overqualified,” and in fact the chances of them having something else BC didn’t like in their application (formulaic recs, poorly written essay, didn’t meet recommended HS course load etc.) are much higher, unfortunately. </p>
<p>Though I still have no idea how the first applicant was wait-listed. Other than accidentally forgetting to send a key form or two, I really am at a loss to explain.</p>
